Re: High CPU usage in GWorkspace but no clue

Hi,

first the good news - I looked at the fswatcher code and did some 
cleanup. I removed it from watching GWorkspace own files, fearing it 
could cause some look - I thought unlikely because those files are in 
theory for thumbnails. Yet worth the try, plus some other minor cleanup 
which should not affect things. Yet I did run GWorkspace for a could of 
days on my two workstations without issues (but sometimes I needed a 
whole week to develop the issue!).
You mai want to upgrade.

I am not fully aware of what you are doing, but I cannot think of it 
doing anything real. The GWorkspace dock is not a "real" dock seen by 
WindowMaker nor it is a window - it is an "area" of the desktop which is 
sensitive. This is why I do not separate it from the main application, 
but this is why I consider it also very "safe" instead of having a 
separate window interacting with other apps and also why it does not 
need a compositing WM for it to look transparent.
Thus, I suppose, if you don't literally stack the two docks on top and 
try to drag something there, there should be no issues.
