[Bug 691509] Re: gwibber starts writing to disk when clicking on a user
Hi,
Didn't want to open another bug report, but my experience is slightly different. It's gwibber-service constantly reading disk (cf screenshot)
This is making my machine becoming less and less responsive over usage time (I have to reboot at least twice a day)
This started since the last update, a week or so ago.
Dell Latitude E6510 with i7cpu, Ubuntu 10.10
uname -a
Linux rd-25 2.6.35-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 21 17:40:44 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
If you need any more information, please let me know which and how to
obtain it.
Thanks,
Steven

Title:
gwibber starts writing to disk when clicking on a user
Status in Gwibber:
New
Bug description:
When using Gwibber as Twitter client, whenever I click on user icon or I do some action that creates a filter for messages, my hard disk starts working for a very very long time (iotop shows gwibber and gwibber-service activity), while cpu seems not affected.
PC became unresposive due to high i/o activity, and after some minutes I have to kill gwibber (that became totally unresponsive) to keep using my pc.
Everything started after last gwibber update, I think it was done last week.
I'm currently using last ubuntu version 10.10 always updated with custom vanilla kernel 2.6.36.
