this is so annoying:
always, when restarting X, with 
ctrl-alt-backspace 
or 
sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
or in tty by doing 
/etc/init.d/gdm stop / start,
I got 100% cpu load. rrrroaarrrr
so I always had to go back to tty (ctrl-alt-f1) and do 
/etc/init.d/gdm stop
killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
/etc/init.d/gdm start

but now i have a very well working workaround: :)

sudo gedit  /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default
add the command 
killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
at the end right before exit 0:
save, now everytime you logout or do ctrl-alt-backspace 
the applet will be killed without being deleted from panel.

sudo gedit /etc/init.d/gdm
add the command 
killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
to line 83, it should look like this:
  stop)
        log_begin_msg "Stopping GNOME Display Manager..."
        start-stop-daemon --stop  --quiet --oknodo --pidfile $PIDFILE --name 
gdm $SSD_ARG --retry 30 >/dev/null 2>&1
        killall xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
        log_end_msg 0

save, now you can work normal in tty and once you have to resatrt gdm,
you will notice nothing anymore.

hope this helps the few, till its fixed.
cheers.
