[Bug]: conky-cairo freezes on sway

[lnxlv]

What happened?

Similar problem as reported by previous member, but with Openbox WM. System often freezes. I cannot find or reproduce exact circumstances under which these freezes occur.
During the freeze mouse cursor can be moved, but clicks has no effects. Keyboard works, at least Ctrl-Alt-F2 works, can switch to console.
In the console process monitor (htop) shows high CPU load ~100% for openbox and conky. After killing conky process, openbox still consumes around 100% CPU and does not responding to mouse clicks. After killing openbox and restarting Xorg session everything works good until next freeze.
The same problem is observed оn another machine with almost the same openbox and conky configuration.
Rolling back the conky to 1.18.3 solves the problem, no freezes occurs with 1.18.3 version.

1.19.8_pre (arch linux version) seems to have fixed this; so far, no problems on a new install

edit: or not. Instead of freezing the system, conky(-cairo) freezes now. Back to 1.18.3
