Public bug reported: I can experience very high CPU usage by dbus-daemon and delayed opening of programs like leafpad and vlc. CPU usage of dbus-daemon is 100% of a CPU core for 3 to 5 minutes if I do one of the below operations: a) launching leafpad from thunar to open a text file (double-clicking on the file) b) running the command "leafpad /path-to-file/file.txt" c) launching vlc from thunar to open a video file d) pressing Alt+F2 so as to open the Application Launcher e) pressing Ctrl+Alt+T to open xfce4-terminal f) opening xfce-taskmanager by clicking on the tray widget in xfce4-panel. When I experience the above problem, a reboot can solve the problem, but sometimes the problem disappears after some time without rebooting.
I am considering upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04 to 18.04 just to eliminate this bug. My system is up-to-date. High CPU usage of dbus-daemon for minutes after passing a path to a program to open. ata@HPp:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS Release: 16.04 ata@HPp:~$ apt-cache policy dbus dbus: Telepítve: 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 Jelölt: 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 Verziótáblázat: *** 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.10.6-1ubuntu3 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages ata@HPp:~$ apt-cache policy dbus vlc leafpad thunar dbus: Telepítve: 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 Jelölt: 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 Verziótáblázat: *** 1.10.6-1ubuntu3.4 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.10.6-1ubuntu3 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages vlc: Telepítve: 2.2.2-5ubuntu0.16.04.4 Jelölt: 2.2.2-5ubuntu0.16.04.4 Verziótáblázat: *** 2.2.2-5ubuntu0.16.04.4 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.2.2-5 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages leafpad: Telepítve: 0.8.18.1-4 Jelölt: 0.8.18.1-4 Verziótáblázat: *** 0.8.18.1-4 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status thunar: Telepítve: 1.6.11-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 Jelölt: 1.6.11-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 Verziótáblázat: *** 1.6.11-0ubuntu0.16.04.2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.6.10-2ubuntu1+patch1 500 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/yuri-sucupira/thunar1.6.10-fix/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 1.6.10-2ubuntu1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages ** Affects: bcmwl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: I can experience very high CPU usage by dbus-daemon and delayed opening of programs like leafpad and vlc.
