Subject: libgloox7: Too short receive timeout causes gloox to busy wait
Package: libgloox7
Version: 0.9.9.5-1.2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
In ConnectionTCPBase::receive(), there is a line:
while( !m_cancel && ( err = recv( 10 ) ) == ConnNoError )
This is a timeout of 10 microseconds, which causes recv() to immediately timeout and in fact busy-wait, uselessly
eating significant amount of CPU time. More sane timeout value should be used.
Bug can be solved with following small patch or by updating the package to version in upstream SVN branch 1.0, where
this is already fixed.

Fixed a long time ago; looks like this bug just got lost during an
earlier transition.
