Figured out something, the one where I'm downloading files to is most often the culprit on this. I close it and reopen and I'm back to normal, for a little while anyway. It seems updating file size, time stamps and such is what makes it go weird. May even be a bug that needs fixing or just a feature that works that way. lol Read David's reply a few times. As most likely know, my scripting skills are minimal, if they exist at all. I'm not quite sure what all that does. :/ I'm sure it is nifty tho. :-D Dale :-) :-)

Or scroll the mouse wheel on the pager/desktop switcher to switch between desktops. But Yakuake is probably the easiest solution. You can also toggle "view on all desktops" for the console via the context menu.

If I run that command in a Konsole, can I still click to switch to the desktop that Dolphin is running on? I have to click to switch since the usual offender is on desktop 12, 13 or 14. I can't switch there with the F keys. It seems something else uses those shortcuts. Now to read up a little on that command. Never heard of it before. Dale :-) :-)

In a console run: xprop _NET_WM_PID Your cursor will turn into a crosshair. now click on the first dolphin window. In the console you now get something like _NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 576073 Compare the number with the PID in top from the dolphin instance with high CPU usage. If it is the same you have your instance. If not repeat with the next dolphin window.
[gentoo-user] Dolphin, CPU usage and process ID to which window.
Howdy, Has anyone else noticed that Dolphin is using more CPU than it used to? It used to sit around 1% or even less. For the past month or so, mine has increased to 2, 3, 4 and 5% with occasional brief instances of even higher usage. I notice this in top. Memory usage is normal tho. Mine is usually a few hundred MBs or so. Closing and restarting Dolphin seems to help for a little while. Another question. I use top to see what is using the CPU so much. When it is Dolphin, I can't tell which window it is. I sometimes have a few instances of Dolphin open at the same time. Sometimes I have my spot marked by highlighting a file or files. If I kill it, I don't get to write down where I was. Thing is, I can't tell from top which window it is that is using the CPU more than it should. Is there a way to figure out which process goes with which window or running instance of Dolphin? In top, it shows a ID number like this. 16577 dale 20 0 986256 160680 79288 S 2.8 0.5 25:56.63 /usr/bin/dolphin -session 10c8caded100015521120210315890017_1597693134_23929 16565 dale 20 0 719940 107576 75616 S 1.9 0.3 77:19.07 /usr/bin/dolphin -session 10c8caded100015521118380315890011_1597693134_23758 Is there a way to know what window that ID belongs too? I was hoping the upgrade today would help. It doesn't seem so. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
