I'm running e17 on a dual-monitor set up.

One thing I've noticed about e17 versus other window managers is
that virtual desktops are on a per-monitor basis.  E.g. if I go to
virtual desktop 2 on my left monitor, my right monitor says the
same.  I'm assuming this is how it's supposed to work.  It's
different than what I'm used to, but not a bad thing.  I'm really
indifferent either way.

But when xscreensaver kicks in, I have what looks like two instances
of xscreensaver, one on each monitor.  This would be cool, except
that the performance of xscreensaver is terrible.  The demos flicker
really badly, plus CPU load goes through the roof.

Is there something I need to change in xscreensaver, e, or even
Xorg?

Just before sending this email, I was messing around in
xscreensaver-demo, and even THAT is horrendously slow.  I set the
screensaver mode to "blank only", restarted xscreensaver-demo, and
even then the GUI was extremely unresponsive.  The rest of my
desktop was fine.  But the xscreensaver-demo GUI took >10 *seconds*
to respond to each mouse click.  

I'll try rebuilding xscreensaver (I'm using gentoo).  But in the
meantime, if anyone has any thoughts or ideas, I'm happy to hear
them!

Thanks,
Matt
