Hello
I've quite recently installed openbox for the first time after trying out a couple of DE's and window managers. So far I like it, but I've recently got some problem with the X process taking a lot of CPU and it lags when doing stuff in the GUI, like moving windows and such.
The problem isn't always there, it starts after using the computer for a while, maybe an hour or so. And if I restart X it disappears again for another hour. I'm not sure why the problem occurs. I suspect it might be related to my sshfs mount, which I'm working against quite a lot, I got the suspicion since I don't think I had the problem before I've set up the sshfs.
I'm also running xcompmgr, but I've tried without, but the issues still appears.
Any ideas what could cause this problem?
Thanks

What video driver do you use?

I'm using the NVIDIA driver, It seems to run fine, if I try glxgears after X starts to get sluggish I still get about 20k fps.

Sorry for bumping old thread, but this issue is quite difficult to describe. Does it involve lack of smoothness while scrolling pages, or directories with a lot of files in file manager?

I've moved on to gnome a while ago, not because of this issue though.
The problem occurred only with actions involving the window manager, such as moving, resizing etc. The windows itself where responsive when scrolling lists etc.
I had no problem using Firefox etc. while the issue occurred.
