RE: high CPU load

["Soong, SylokeJ" <SSoong at ALLEGROMICRO dot com>]

My cygwin/x server processes are at 0% when not used.
They are near 0% even when xwin is receiving lots of screen update from the
solaris client running SAS.

My last cygwin update was two weeks ago.
When was your last update and what were your updates?
 (so that I know what to avoid updating).

I am using XP/Pro on Dell Latitude P4 "centrino"(whatever is that?),
where my xwin/wmaker is displayed on an external 2nd monitor at 1792x1344.
Are you running wmaker, KDE or native ms windows manager?

I had similar problems of high cpu before but I found that my anti-virus s/w
was trying to check everything netbeans and cygwin was doing. I forgot how I
took care of that. I did not shut any anti-virus process down.

(note: I sent this out last night but it didn't seem to appear.  Forgive 
me if this is a duplicate post)

I'm not sure what has happened but relatively recently I've noticed that
the X11 server is consuming inordinate amounts of CPU (70%+) even when
it is not doing anything.  I've upgraded to the latest cygwin but it
didn't change anything.

Running on Windows 2000 with all service packs plus security fixes.

ideas?
