GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 698579
external tools: continues to consume 100% CPU after tool is stopped

To see the problem: 1. Start System Monitor so you can watch process activity. 2. In gedit, run an external tool which will run for a while (for example, building gedit itself). 3. Press Stop to stop the tool. In System Monitor you'll see that gedit continues to consume 100% CPU even after the tool is stopped.
Fixed. Please give us some feedback if it works for you too.
Seems fine now. Thanks for the quick response on this!
