I am wondering if anyone has seen anything like this.  Here's a copy of top:

My CPU is 100% utilized, but no processes seem to be using the CPU.  I can't 
seem to figure out what's causing the load.  I know that something is, 
though, because xscreensaver is running very slow.

I've noticed that when I log out of my KDE desktop, the load goes away.  
When I log back in, it comes back, though not right away.  I can't figure 
out what process is causing the problem, though.

Note that, though X doesn't appear in this top output, it has be reniced to 
0 (from -10).  I'm running kernel 2.6.4 on Sid.  My last upgrade was only a 
couple of weeks ago, so I'm pretty up to date.

Google has, thus far, been unfruitful.

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Justin Guerin
