Don't work here.  Just hitting reply to this email, took 5 seconds for
the window to appear and the writing to show up.

What I do  see, is opening up a  termain and running "top", then
clicking a few windows that are open, going back and forth for few
seconds and just clicking on each one along the panel, then quickly
going to the terminal and can see X using over 50% CPU.

So seems X is using up resources in one way or another pretty much no
matter what I do.
