[Bug 1189645] Re: 13.04, lag under desktop environments

 

Yeah, I can try another kernel, but I don't see how that helps to
identify the problem. Shouldn't there be some register or log showing
what part of the system is getting out of sorts?


PS: After a  long shutdown and restart, the problem reappeared within 15 minutes of starting. I noticed this time that the cpu temperature does NOT go up when the system is lagging. When performance is normal, cpu temperature goes up quite a bit.


~$ gtkperf -a
Total time: 108.74  (normal is around 10)

~$ sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda
 Timing cached reads:   142 MB in  2.02 seconds =  70.45 MB/sec  (normal is around 800)
 Timing buffered disk reads:  62 MB in  3.08 seconds =  20.14 MB/sec

Bug description:
  A while after logging on, the system gets really slow. Menus and
  window movements take a while to respond, switching windows is slow,
  etc.

  This is a regression, it was not like this using Ubuntu 12.10, it just
  started on 13.04. Tried different desktops (Unity, GnomeFaillback,
  Lxde). They all have the same issue.

  Testing showed the issue is triggered by the TLP power management package.
  TLP was installed in an attempt to resolve issue of fan running constantly.
