Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Two tasks lead to Xorg taking all the cpu and slowing down the current tasks. First task : -using xsane, scan an image and direct it to the viewer, upon save, xorg takes all the cpu and slows down the saving of the image. For example, it took more than 11 minutes to save a 33MB image in .pnm format. Looking at the progress bar, it as first going normally quick then it slew down more and more until almost stalled. Finally the task (saving the image) ended after more than 11 minutes but the image could not be read in Eye of Gnome ("Le chargeur PNM s'attendait à recevoir un entier, mais ce n'était pas le cas"), sometimes the image is successfully saved. This is reproduceable and very annoying. Second task : -I got this bug also one time during a task in Gimp (resize or rotate) but I could not reproduce it this morning. Nevertheless despiste the slow down, it still possible to change windows and do some work on the computer (no freeze).
