Well I've told Peter that XServer should be eating something -
but it definitely shouldn't be something like 50%.
On my box when I use avibench for some file - then complete play time
is ~55s - 40s takes decoder ~14s XSync time - which really means around
25% CPU load for the XFree server - in this case there is only one
thread which is rendering and another one which reads file.
