New issue 474 by cmcbr... at rjmetrics.com: XMonad does not respond to  
keyboard input when there is a lot of I/O occuring in a terminal
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=474

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. cat /dev/urandom in a terminal emulator (I'm using 'terminator')

2. CPU usage is only around 20% however xmonad is completey unresponsive to  
mouse or keyboard input. It usually takes a while to gain control again.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Xmonad would handle this gracefully.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Xmonad 0.10 and Debian Linux, kernel 2.36 liquorix

Are you using an xmonad.hs?  Please attach it and the output of "xmonad
--recompile".

Please provide any additional information below.
