I have the exact same activity with GNOME. Chances are  that the local
time gets updated and maybe ACPI events on the logs and things like
that. All  interprocess communication happens through open sockets
(you can see a few in /tmp) and even more if you give the 'lsof''
command.

I wouldn't worry too much about  that activity but if you are
interested to find out what causes it exactly you can let us know if
you find out!

Good luck!
