Thank you for the tip.  That may well be, I'll investigate.

From an Octave's point of view, the cause of the cpu overload is
irrelevant, and the interesting thing is that a synch problem with Emacs
happnes when the system is overloaded.  I thought that this may have
something in commom with the fltk bug I ws reporting.
