Well, in your original description you raise the issue that this leads
to difficulties to get correct datas, so I thought you might want to be
able to filter out a known issue... anyway that seems like a compiz
issue, there had been similar bugs on some videocard in the past (bugs
in the videodrivers), can you reproduce on real hardware (that would
help to determine if that's indeed dependant of the video driver)

Title:
  gnome-screensaver causes jump in compiz events

Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I have some automated tests that run eventstat to track the average
  events/second for all running processes.  I've been having trouble
  getting the data to stabilize and showed it to Colin King recently,
  who seems to have found the culprit.  If you look at
  https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/eventstat-raring-desktop-amd64
  -install-idle-vm/95/artifact/eventstat.csv you will see that on line
  8, the events/second for compiz jumps dramatically.  Move over a few
  columns and you'll see that this sudden rise corresponds to gnome-
  screensaver activating.

  This is on a freshly installed raring vm, so it should be the default
  screensaver.
