Package: findutils Version: 4.2.31-4 Followup-For: Bug #316930
After purging and re-installing locate and running sh -x /etc/cron.daily/locate which showed: nice -n 10 updatedb.findutils and top reporting the find command running with nice level 10, I would still get an unresponsive system with 99.9 percent cpu going to find. At the time, find was searching through a vfat filesystem. The problem seems to be deeper than the locate utility as no process that has a nice level of 10 should bring everything else to a virtual halt. I am now purging locate from this machine as it takes too much contol of the machine. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-rc7 (SMP w/1 CPU core; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages findutils depends on: ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries findutils recommends no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
