I am running Linux Mint 17, Cinnamon 2.4.8
Hello, I am using ImageMagick to create large 500+ png images.
This causes Cinnamon to go very slow.
I would understand if Cinnamon is slow WHILE I am rendering many images, however, Cinnamon is really slow even AFTER the renders are complete.
The only way to remedy this is to do a reboot, but I would really like another solution if possible.

when your system is slow: is the CPU busy, and if so, what processes are keeping it (pressP
to sort processes by CPU usage time)?free
. There is nothing that seems to be related to imagemagick from mytop
