The various X applications send requests to your X server that executes them. In a way, the X server "bundles" the load but it really originates from other applications.
I can see that you run Star/Open Office and Firefox. I wouldn't call these light weight applications. That "kontact" also looks like a memory eater, and if system load and memory footprint is an issue for you, than KDE is maybe not the best of a choice for a window manager.
are suggesting that the default Suse desktop (KDE) is not the one they should use ? I think it is a very good, integrated and user friendly desktop env I know Firefox and OpenOffice are memory consumers, but I think the problem is coming from Amarok, when I closed it the problem disapearred. I'll report this problem to amarok developpers
