Looks like some commands stay running after making a mini icon, but are
detached from X-server forcibly i.e. by closing connection on fvwm side.
This happens to, for example, xmms and some other apps if you kill them with
xkill. Thus they may be doing polls and such that loads your CPU. Launch a
'ps wax' command and grep for leftover commands like 'convert' or whatever
you launch to make miniicons. If they really stay you should debug fvwm
function making miniicons to not to leave them running.
