I also switched to a TrueType font for gnometerminals (bitstream-vera) 
around the same time, so maybe that's a factor, too.

As for window managers, I use sawfish (and have been, for a long time 
before the problem.)

Also (unrelated?), it seems that X eats up a LOT of CPU with antialiases 
TrueType fonts in terminals, compared to good, old lucida-typewriter.
