I said I wasn't going to post anymore, but I'm interested--I tried ps -Al } grep HarfBuzz (and harfbuzz) on my Debian Wheezy system with kde--no sign of it--does KDE use something else?
KDE uses Qt which uses HarfBuzz. You can see it in the dependencies at
https://packages.debian.org/sid/libqt5gui5
However HarfBuzz is not a separate process but runs as part of the graphical application (it is a library), so you do not see it in ps -Al.
Thanks! (Subsequently I looked up HarfBuzz on Wikipedia and got a little better understanding.)
