[Bug 36581] Re: gam_server consumes lots of cpu time

[geofs]

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: moved 69 events to event queue
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
inotify: got IGNORED event for unknown wd 414635
(...)

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