The original bug here has been fixed for some time in upstream Beagle.

[Bug 77106] Re: 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity
Just a note that I was using a fairly old version, the New Zealand mirrors were quite out of date. After updating using the US sources, things seemed to get a lot better, and now there doesn't seem to be the excess CPU usage I mentioned earlier. Beagle now seems to be quite OK to run on both my feisty beta machines. -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The same is happening in a Toshiba Satellite U200 with latest beagle-0.2.9-1ubuntu3. The safest approach to avoid overheating or burning your cpus when you're away of your computer is to go to System->Preferences->Session and disable beagle, until a real solution is found. -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 77106] Re: 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity
I'm running Feisty beta on my desktop, and after a time of inactivity beagle starts indexing. This causes the CPU temperature to go up, and the fan to kick in. That would be OK, but it never seems to finish indexing. It seems to be doing this over and over: 20070325 15:24:06.5149 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Running file crawl task 20070325 15:24:06.5188 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Done crawling '/home/robin/work/masters/src/main/build/basega/exceptions' 20070325 15:24:06.5216 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Running file crawl task 20070325 15:24:06.5259 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Done crawling '/home/robin/work/masters/src/main/build/grouping/gga' there are many more directory names involved, however they seem to repeat after a few seconds: 20070325 15:24:12.5660 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Done crawling '/home/robin/work/masters/src/main/build/basega/exceptions' ... 20070325 15:24:18.6071 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Done crawling '/home/robin/work/masters/src/main/build/basega/exceptions' ... 20070325 15:24:24.6764 06295 Beagle DEBUG: Done crawling '/home/robin/work/masters/src/main/build/basega/exceptions' this unwillingness to stop means that my computer CPU fan is running all the time I'm not actually sitting at the machine. -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think you're partially right, I mean I agree that is correct for beagled to work during idle times; what instead is wrong and makes this behaviour a bug is: a) beagled duty is spent all over one out of the two cores avaible on my processor, causing selective overheating (and consequent premature high speed fan activation). Possible fix -> make beagled background indexing multithreaded or debug current code if already multithreaded b) high cpu usage when idle keeps persisting over long periods (i've monitored the pc for about 2 hours and still beagled was indexing), this situation is quite strange since beagled preferences are told to index only my home directory (and recursively all the nested ones) but I don't have so many files to index. This scenario also suggest some bugs during the indexing operations, likely the one reported on bug #64326 where some file types took high time amounts to be indexed. -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 77106] Re: 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity
2 big points to bring up here. 1) Please see if you can't get a version of 0.2.14 somewhere, overall its nicer on the CPU/Ram then previous releases. 2) A big part of what were seeing here is a behavioral thing. Beagle is programmed to stay quite and throttle itself heavily when the user is active at the computer. However, once the screensaver activates, beagle opens up and is far less frugal with system resources. Now, some balk at this idea, however, its completes indexing _much_ faster and happens when the computer is not in use. However, at compile time, if the --disable-xss flag is passed, then beagle will not notice when the computer is idle and will always be conservative. Personally, I would rather let it go all out when I'm not using the computer, but thats one opinion. It's very unlikely upstream is going to change this behaviour, but if ubuntu really wants, they can compile beagle with the --disable-xss flag, however, Im afraid that were gonna end up with people complaining beagle takes far to long to index (especially things like mail) -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Indagating with system monitor i've discovered is the process "beagled" start eating 2nd core power. Removing it (along with the deskbar) from startup program totally fixes the problem. I've also found that likely the same bug was reported before for beagled: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/beagle/+bug/64326 Anyway the bug report states "Fix Released" but the bug is still exists today (my ubuntu system is daily updated). -- 100% cpu load after 5' of inactivity https://launchpad.net/bugs/77106 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
