This is a somewhat random guess, but did you update your xorg-server to
the latest version? I had that exact problem with the update. I'm yet to
find out exactly what's wrong.

In addition to the high cpu usage, I also noticed that some windows
don't have borders. Very weird.

In my case, it can't be caused by a loop in xinitrc, like some suggest,
since I have "exec conky-nox11 -c ~/.conkyrc | dwm" in my .xinitrc.
