If non-essential processes load CPU, you can just drop their priority and let
them.
Here's my shell script from the time more XFCE plugins were voracious - save
this where you can find it, make sure the file is executable, then add "<your
path>/leash_cpuhogs.sh" in Application Autostart tab in Session and Startup -
those seem to run after enforced session applications proper, so unless there
are more slowing bugs, it will work (otherwise "sleep 10" line at the start
should do the trick).
To see what exactly is done just uncomment diagnostics and start it from
terminal.
#!/bin/sh
NEWPRIORITY=8
HOGNAMES="libindicator"
# it's a regexp, so add more as "(libindicator|libcpugraph|whatever)"
# ps xao %p%a | grep -iP $HOGNAMES | grep -v "logout" | grep -v "grep"
HOGLIST=`ps xao %p%a | grep -iP $HOGNAMES | grep -v "logout" | grep -v "grep" |
grep -o "^\s*[0-9]*"`
echo "$HOGLIST" | while read thisproc
do
# echo deprioritizing $thisproc
renice -n $NEWPRIORITY -p $thisproc
done
