Comment 6 for bug 1006553

I tried the strace suggested in #2, with the output below - pretty much the same as Māris.

The nice thing is, doing the strace also stopped the 100% cpu usage and the process I traced is no longer there.

The odd thing is that there were two processes at 100% cpu according to htop, but only one according to ps and only one of my 4 cpus was pegged. I traced the one that was not visible in ps, and now it is gone.....
