I noticed that jbd2/sda2-8 is always using disk and iotop showing IO% between 1%-5%.

I checked the logs and noticed Xorg.0.log quite large. I see there are frequent connection and disconnection. Is there a way to reduce this.

[root@vmcloudm51 autoit]# tail -f /var/log/Xorg.0.log

This may not be the cause, but there is an option -audit number to the Xorg server that can be used to get these sort of messages on stderr. See man Xserver. If you can see this option on the process command line with a value of 2 or more, you need to find where it is being set and change it to 1 or 0:

The default level is 1, meaning only connection rejections are reported. Level 2 additionally reports all successful connections and disconnects. [...] Level 0 turns off the audit trail. Audit lines are sent as standard error output.
