XFree86 uses 75% of CPU when opening a new Konqueror or any new application. Now I have a way I like to use KDE, 16 desktops labeled alphabetically from a to z. I know mail is on desktop "M". Konqueror with Yahoo is on desktop "Y". I start up with about 16 Konqueror windows and a netscape window and 4 consoles.
Anyhow, it takes from 30 to 60 seconds to open a new konqueror window or any application. The reason is XFree86 uses 75% of CPU according to top. I have a Athlon 1700xp with a 512MB and 256MB PC133 memory with a Kaiser S305-32A video card (32MB memory on video card). Any way to get XFree86 not to hog CPU time? Am I the only person having this slowness?
