Yes kde seems to core dumping very often, but it generally hasn't slowed me down. I have it upt for hours, and have no real problems. I never found out when it happens, but for me Ill speculate that it dumps when Im exiting. Maybe 1 out of 3 times Ill find a kdeinit.core sitting in my home dir. But all in all its ok.....
