Re: [Bug 454740] Re: xastir consumes CPU time in X11 socket I/O

 

Kevin, Iain, Kamal, et al,

_ALL_ Xastir bugs and problems are handled on/at
Xastir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

ALL support is to be routed via that reflector.

The CPU load you are seeing is normal for all operating systems as far
as I know.

Many are now running Xastir on headless Raspbery-Pi's without problems.

As far as I am concerned this bug should be closed due to old age and
lack of any others complaining about the CPU load factor.

  After upgrading from Intrepid (xastir 1.9.2) to Jaunty I noticed my
  CPU was running at a constant ~10%.  Running an strace revealed there
  was quite a bit time spent timing out of polls on the X11 socket fd.
  I tried setting the DISPLAY to use TCP instead of UNIX sockets, but
  the high poll activity still occurred.
