[Bug 1335373] Re: ibus uses too much cpu while typing

 

Can't reproduce in stock Ubuntu 14.04 amd64, closing as Invalid. I see
in the upstream report you are using Mint, if that's the case please try
to ask Mint developers to do some investigation.

** Changed in: ibus (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

Title:
  ibus uses too much cpu while typing

Status in IBus:
  Unknown
Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. type random stuff fast in a terminal
  2. ibus hogs 15% of a core - Intel Core i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.30GHz
  3. this is much more CPU than recordmydesktop needs to record it!

  What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

  I expect this thing to forward my ASCII keystrokes to my terminal
  without eating 15% of a core.

  I uploaded a youtube video to express my disgust with this program's
  ridiculously bad performance.

  Maybe this ibus component is the second coming of Jesus for people who
  speak Chinese.  If so, great.  As for me, I don't need other input
  methods very much, I just want plain normal ASCII input to get through
  to my programs efficiently.

  unity-control-center depends on ibus. You should not have let this
  thing into stable with its absolutely atrocious performance. In my
  opinion it should not be in Debian stable either; atrocious
  performance is a serious fault.

  I do not expect operating system components to perform as if they were
  written by grade school children.  Can you fix this thing to not suck,
  please?  Or get rid of it.  Or at least get rid of the dependency on
  it.
