Also : can you post again the debug output when you have the bug (with Firefox if possible)?
   $ cairo-dock -ol debug

And what's the ram consummation of Xorg ?
Thanks

Dock disappears, CPU usage goes to 100%

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core: Incomplete

Bug description:
Cairo Dock version 2.1.2-4
Ubuntu 9.10 32-bit
Using CD with OpenGL
Bug occurs on multiple systems: Laptop with NVidia 6600 graphics, Eee PC with Intel graphics 

I have auto-hide enabled.  Sometimes the dock disappears (refuses to un-hide), and CPU usage spikes to 100% causing a massive system slow-down and spike in CPU temperature, and I must kill cairo-dock.  I have not isolated what user actions cause this.  It seems to happen randomly, but it frequently occurs immediately after a dialog box appears while the dock is hiding, or is in the process of hiding (for example a message notification from Empathy).  This has happened to me on two different laptops with different graphics chips, so it can't be a driver problem.  

I will attempt to follow up with debug info if I can catch it.
