> Backtrace for /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon

hum, that stacktrace has no useful info, it seems to just be waiting in
poll() which it what it does when not busy

> Funny thing is that I wasn't able to attach to the process unless I
used sudo (although the process was owned by my user!!)

that's a security protection, ptrace can't be used by normal users

> Another funny thing is that after detaching (or maybe that happened
after attaching), the process stopped hogging the CPU.

weird
