Binary package hint: openoffice.org
When you select a whole row or column for copying by clicking on the row or column label, the copy range is bounded by marching ant-style selection. This drives Xorg crazy, and top shows Xorg to be using 50% or more of CPU. The user experience is that the whole machine slows down, compiz effects get sluggish, etc. The bug seems to be worse when a row rather than a column is selected. Xorg's CPU load goes back to normal after hitting esc, which kills the marching ants.
