The attached stacks.txt is representative of the majority of runs of the dstack script on my machine while it is exhibiting this behavior (vanilla 12.04 as of today). Top reports a loadav of 1.57 with what should be a mostly idle system with compiz as the largest cpu consumer 30% with nothing else above 10%.
There's a clock widget on my desktop (with an incremental second hand). Killing the thunderbird instance (with a spinning throbber) drops compiz cpu use to 6% (still with a similar typical dstack output) ** Attachment added: "dstack output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/803943/+attachment/3101928/+files/stacks1.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803943 Title: compiz consuming a lot of cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/803943/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
