Well, thats 3 out of 3 different machines, all running Ubuntu-9.10 which
don't have the problem that the troll "dfs' claims, and I wonder why that
could be ?
Perhaps "dfs" is a well known clueless anti Linux troll, who lies all the
time ?
You think ?
DFS thinks uptime isn't a application

I can get it to 99% on the Fedora laptop by switching desktops.
Whoop de do.
Who is doing work while desktop switching? You want the desktop to switch
fast. It does.
And guess what? Autoconf/automake keeps running well the whole time.
(For fun, hold the desktop switching key down and see how long it takes the
keyboard buffer to empty.)
DFS acts deranged. He's the same guy who blame window update speed on Linux
rather than the app.

I get it to jump to about 17% unless I jump back and forth a number of
times. Then it mazes out at a whopping 16%, whether I jump back and
forth twice or fifty times.

I didn't see a blip of any sort except the CPU usage went up.

*ACTS* deranged? It's not an act. If it was he'd slip up now and then,
forgetting that he's supposed to be a deranged person, and fail to act
the part. But he's consistently deranged.

I'm getting about 9-10%...

That's where it was at on this Debian 64-bit box, though it hit 60% once.
Turning on opaque window moving makes it a steady 44%.
(These measurements, by the way, are shown by gkrellm).
