Oh, i forgot to say that i was aware of update-notifier, and the resources
consumption i was telling you before are without this app running (removed
from startup apps)

Since 10.04, we add more features, and it probably takes more ressources
than expected. For example, we "lost" 10 Mb of RAM for update-notifier,
which warn about crashes and updates. We try to minimize this impact,
but sometimes we can't avoid this.

About CPU usage, there is a bug in the theme, which cause more CPU usage
than expected (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-artwork/+bug/776776)
You can try to use the LXDesign theme in the meantime, the CPU usage
should go back to the normal.

Julien Lavergne

[Rafael Laguna]

Thanks for your kind words :)

We're working on it, on making everything fast and light, but some things we
cannot control gone wild. For example, the new kernel, 3.0, seems to be
faster. I'm tetsing right now and I'm very surprised about its speed.

But I'm not sure if this is the reason. Also, the programs evolution
sometimes get bigger (and their libraries), that's why we change sometimes
an application by default.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Resources on 11.04

[Jean-Pierre Vidal Piesset]

Devs:

Recently installed 11.04 and i'm surprised by the RAM and CPU% consumed by
Lubuntu in this release (I was keeping my main machine with 10.04 but
decided to change to be able to help a little more).
Back in 10.04 my ram consumption was below 75MB... now the system starts
above 100MB / the CPU was always below 10%... now is almost all the time at
30%.
Everything is faster, scrolls are better, the theme renders nicely (thanks
Rafael), pcmanfm work very well... but as far as i understand, if lubuntu is
a distro intended for low spec hardware (and for old machines) normally the
ram consumption should be decreasing over the releases... not the opposite.

Just my point of view.
