Bug Description
Fiesty x86 on IBM Thinkcentre (P4 2.8 / 1GB RAM)
Running Xinerama dual head
Screen 1-> Intel 82865G (i810 driver)
Screen 2-> Rendition Verite (rendition driver)
Both screens @ 1280x1024
To reproduce:
1) Open a gnome-terminal (Full Screen)
2) Run a command with rapid multi-lined output (i.e. an scp of several thousand very small files)
3) Check top - Xorg running at near 100% CPU
The size of the window is directly proportional to CPU utilization (shrinking it down, reduces the impact). Minimizing has no effect.

Could you please recheck it with Gutsy Final Live CD? In Gutsy i810 driver is deprecated and intel driver is used instead.
Xinerama doesn't work anymore with new Intel driver since xrandr is used instead.
