Avoiding it becoming interactive in the first place is the answer. Anything 
more rapid and X dies dead as soon as you start moving a window for example, 
and new apps are seen as cpu hogs during startup and will take _forever_ to 
start under load. It's a tricky juggling act and I keep throwing more balls 
at it.
