Comment 5 for bug 36581

When I use ktorrent (kde bittorent client), gam_server uses up to 25% cpu (athlon 1200Mhz, 512MB).

I also have the same .xsession-errors messages

9172 geof 15 0 3280 1948 896 S 21.4 0.4 2:20.12 gam_server
23409 geof 16 0 50784 23m 18m R 9.1 4.7 0:04.48 ktorrent
 5939 root 15 0 62000 43m 5076 S 5.8 8.6 10:22.64 Xorg
 6028 geof 15 0 31972 15m 12m S 1.9 3.1 4:24.30 kded

I can provide the /tmp/gamin_debug_* file on request.
I contains interesting things like this

inotify recieved 1 events
inotify: moved 1 events to event queue
inotify: got MODIFY on = /home/geof/.xsession-errors
inotify: Emitting Changed on /home/geof/.xsession-errors
inotify: Emitting Changed on /home/geof/.xsession-errors

and

inotify recieved 68 events

inotify: got MODIFY on = /home/geof/.xsession-errors
inotify: Emitting Changed on /home/geof/.xsession-errors
inotify: got IGNORED event for unknown wd 414637
inotify: got IGNORED event for unknown wd 414636

(...)

But i can't say what all this stuff means yet.
