Stefan-

I'm running OI151a9 on my primary workstation, and not seeing this issue.

I don't even know how to phrase this question, mostly because I don't
completely understand the architecture and when Compiz gets involved,
but is the problem server using Compiz?

Have you tried attaching to the process that's active on the CPU with
something like "truss -f", to see if you can spot any place where it's
looping on a repeated error?
