I have seen this both with mm2, m33 and mm4.
Correction, m22 and mm3 only so far.
Suddenly, the load meter jumps.
Using ps & top, I see one process using 100% cpu.
This is always a process that was exiting, this tend to happen
when I close applications, or doing debian upgrades which
runs lots of short-lived processes.
I believe it is running in the kernel, ps lists it with stat "RN"
and it cannot be killed, not even with kill -9 from root.
Something wrong with process termination?
Please generate a kernel profile when it happens so we can see
where it got stuck.
<boot with profile=1>
<wait for it to happen>
Unfortunately, I could not provoke it with profile=1.
At least, deinstalling and reinstalling texlive
a few times was not enough.
If it bothers me more, I'll try to find a better way to reproduce it.
If it don't happen again, lets hope it was a hw hiccup.
