Actually, turns out I'm also seeing this on Mac, and there I can attach the "sampler" instrument from Xcode to a running process, e.g. after it has gone (apparently) idle. Maybe something similar exists for Linux?

I had been thinking that maybe this was related to my patch that allows to stop queued background parser processes (via a stub KJob that shouldn't be doing anything itself and gets registered in the ProcessController ). But that patch had not been applied to my latest builds, so something else must be going on.
