Leaving a terminal window with htop running, I've noticed an interesting detail related to compiz CPU consumption patterns. The Clementine player does it!
Seriously, when the Clementine is not launched, or launched but not vissible the compiz CPU% stays within reasonable limits (0%-3%). But when Clementin is launched the CPU% jumps to 30%-60%. All that with no other activity. Now, that I think of it, it could be a QT thing. Hiding Clementine and launching Bitcoin-Qt raises the compiz' CPU% to 18%, which was drawing a progress bar and a spinner. Now have both those applications minimized and compiz' CPU% is 1%-7% . With no other activity.
