Comment 5 for bug 417778

Judging by the process' use of CPU time compared to the machine's uptime, it seems that this wasn't a result of the machine being idle, especially given that the process was frozen in gdb for some time before I ran 'uptime':

chris@chris-laptop:~$ ps -ef | grep xfce4-v

chris@chris-laptop:~$ uptime
