Re: Emacs uses 100% cpu time

[T. V. Raman]

Here are all the things I've tried with *no success* yet.
0)   Killed almost all buffers leaving the bare minimum -- couple
of hsells,
1) turned off global-font-lock verified that
global-font-lock-mode is nil 

2)                    turned off stealth jit locking with
jit-lock-stealth-time set to nil

I performed each of these in sequence and observed that if I went
away from the keyboard for a few minutes, returning to the
machine saw it pegged at 1.0.

This is a really nasty one to chase down!
