 Generally yes, as long as the virtual display server (vfb) has not crashed. 
 If the xpra server is completely gone, you can start a new one with "{{{xpra start --use-display}}}" to re-use the existing display. If it is still running but unresponsive, you should kill it first (and use {{{kill -9}}} to prevent the tear down code from also stopping the vfb display)
+* Why does Xpra use so much of my CPU?
+If you have sound forwarding enabled, then this will consume a fair amount of CPU, whether sound is being played or not. Turn if off if you don't need it.
+Some applications will also repaint their windows unnecessarily, if you don't use them, try minimizing the window.
