I´ve found that logging in from any screen other than The Monastery Gates seems to clear up the clog for me. I´ve been experiencing the same problem from cafes all over the world.

Though I´ve had the CPAN nodelet disabled, I´ll now try it with the Everything Developer nodelet disabled, as suggested above, and see if that changes anything for me.

Update: Disabling the Everything nodelet seems to have done the trick for me.
