I confirm what giannis (karzisss) said in his messages (every 600 seconds i. e. 10 minutes, and so on). Furthermore, on closing the keyboard layouts configuration window the CPU is for about 10 seconds 100 % busy. See also:

There was no visible CPU usage in Xubuntu 11.10, but the xfce4-xkb-plugin could not remember keyboard layout settings for applications (they were being reset to the default language) during a session not interrupted by suspension or hibernation. And now, in the LTS version, it doesn't retain languages for applications and consumes in addition excessively the CPU -- it seems to get worse and worse.
Could anybody tell, has Xubuntu a decent keyboard layout switcher? I need one for 4 languages.
