[Bug 93847] Re: Excessive CPU usage by Gnome System Monitor

 

I was fighting with those excessive CPU usage over the last days, too.
It occurred after upgrading to Lucid, and as most of the subscribers, I
suspected g-m-s. However, I started, by incidence, a session of another
user, which was almost virgin and did not show this high CPU usage. So I
tried to figure out, what could be the difference and, by luck, I
stopped remote control (vinagre) in my session which brought me back to
almost 0% CPU usage. I then tried the different options for vinagre and
found that it was the notification icon (put to only show up when
somebody is connected), which caused the the high CPU usage. All works
fine with either no or permanent notification.

However, I could not reproduce the high CPU usage afterwards. Maybe a
matter of the sequence, so whether g-s-m is stqrted after or before
vinagre.

Hope this helps at least some of the affected.
