I have this problem occasionally because of outdated font cache files. I have
lots of fonts and without up-to-date font caches, every app that's started up
scans all of them, pegging the CPU at 100% for quite a while.
The solution that I've found (better ones requested! [For Debian]) is to go to
the root of each of the major repositories of fonts on the system and run
"fc-cache .".
Fixes it right up,
Shawn.
