John, I'm sorry it annoyed you. The per-user couchdb server is only started on demand from some already-running program (evolution asked for it, perhaps?), and thereafter it should (and indeed does for most people) use almost no CPU except for deep DB searches.
I'm sorry to say, when it does happen, we don't know the cause of the erlang runtime process eating so much CPU, still. It's not easily reproducible or debuggable, and we thought the problem had gone away in the 11.04 released version. If I can find steps to reproduce the problem, I'll update 11.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gwibber Bug Heros, which is subscribed to Gwibber. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458453 Title: beam.smp uses lots of CPU on desktopcouch contacts lookup Status in Desktop CouchDB: Incomplete Status in Evolution CouchDB backend: Fix Released Status in Gwibber: Won't Fix Status in “desktopcouch” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “erlang” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “desktopcouch” source package in Lucid: Incomplete Status in “erlang” source package in Lucid: Invalid Status in Baltix GNU/Linux: New Bug description: Binary package hint: erlang i'm having very slow automatic contacts lookup under karmic using evolution 2.28.1-oubuntu1, erlang-base 1:13.b.1-dfsg-2ubuntu1, and desktopcouch 0.4.4-0ubuntu1. CPU usage by beam.smp spikes up to about 80% and stays there for multiple seconds -- i'd say as long 20-30 -- before allowing input to continue. it renders the automatic contact lookup actually counterproductive, not helpful. would love to help squash thisbug, please advice where i should look to try and help. matt ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Oct 22 15:02:41 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 Package: erlang-base 1:13.b.1-dfsg-2ubuntu1 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_CA.UTF-8 PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-14.48-generic SourcePackage: erlang Uname: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic i686 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/desktopcouch/+bug/458453/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
