Package: udev
Version: 164-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

today I had a very high system load (see attached image) on my PC after
inserting a Cruzer USB stick (4gb memory). After unmounting and removing
the stick, the problem persisted, with tons of messages pertaining to a
device "sr1" which is not found in dmesg, only in kern.log.

After some searching, I found

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/udevd-high-cpu-load-810937/

which may or may not be related, and decided to stop and restart udev.

The problem has not re-occurred yet.


Kind regards,
--Toni++
