Some window managers cause quite a lot of I/O.
KDE and Gnome
being
the biggest offenders. Generally any change in the window manager is
saved to disk somewhere. This isn't the case with Fluxbox, fvwm,
Blackbox, etc.
Gnome does not do this.
If your WM is
so bloated that it causes disk IO then the best advice
is
to get a better WM.
This was the point of the entire thread. I was pointing out that
CPU is not the only bottleneck and that is why I use a light WM
instead
of KDE when recording.
