Package: eterm
Version: 0.9.5-2
Severity: important

Since my latest update from debian unstable, Eterm apparently causes
Xorg to take 100% whil eaiting for input. Type 10 characters and one
will appear on screen immediately, then there will be several minutes
of 100% cpu use in Xorg, and then the remaining 9 characters appear
on screen. It makes use almost impossible.

I can't see any particular strange activity (of Eterm) with strace
while this is going on.

In contrast, xterm and pterm are fine.

I've tried killing KDE daemons on the suspicion that they might be
involved, but I can't locate anything yet. Eterm is running transparant
and there is a root image, and toggling transparant mode seems to help
slightly.

Even when Eterm is hidden by other windows, Xorg is using 25%-50%.
The more of it that is visible, the more cpu that seems to be used,
with Xorg staying about 30-40% if  the mouse cursor is left untouched 
with focus in the Eterm window. Character input causes Xorg to
behave as described above.
