Почему Timidity забирает всю вычислительную мощность одного ядра

Question

Итак, я спрашивал ранее опочему timidityработал на моей системе и получил хорошее объяснение, касающееся systemd.

Теперь мне интересно, почему он загружает одно из моих ядер (мой процессор — AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 640, поэтому у него 4 ядра).

Если я запускаю strace для процесса, то получаю следующее (запускал его в течение нескольких секунд, похоже, процесс повторяется, поэтому я остановился):
