With a static dirfile, kst consumes much (but not quite all) CPU cycles when idle.  I've confirmed that this doesn't occur with ASCII files.  I haven't tried other data sources.  I first noticed this with the new LED indicating new data is show, as it seems to flicker/pulsate when kst is consuming all the cpu, although I'm not 100% sure the problem didn't manifest before the LED was added (since it only seems to be a dirfile thing).  Perhaps this is even somehow related to the idle crash bug (bug 112689)?
