In this discussion of resources available to allow clean zBITX CW, I noticed something that may or may not have meaning.

After letting my zBITX run unattended in CW Mode while connected to a dummy load for about 6 hours, I came back and noticed that Xorg was consuming a core.

?

I did have a SSH connection during this time, and I did have top running the whole time.? But ssh and top are not using Xorg.??

Six hours ago, only sbitx was consuming a large amount ( ~70% ) of one or more cores.? ?Now it is nearly 75%.? ?Seems like a lot of CPU for primarily running just two GUIs (while decoding nonsense).

Throwing this out there because clues are clues !!?
