I'm also experiencing this bug, and have been for months, but I haven't
had a shred of time to do anything about it. For me, Xorg cpu usage goes
as high as 96%, and the only thing that I can do in those cases is log
out of gnome and log back in. It's a major hinderance to essentially
everything.
just for the record, i'm using an eee 701 with the i915 driver.

I uploaded a new synaptic into maverick that may fix the problem, please
let me know, if it does we can consider a backport to lucid-proposed.

The new synaptic still causes high Xorg CPU usage (up to 80%). Still not

Installed synaptic (0.63.1ubuntu12) in Lucid and tested it.
Now I dont have any cpu spike as earlier. Previously the synaptic and Xorg each
would use 20% CPU. But now none of those problems.
/usr/lib/atp/methods/https alone has a spike for 1-2 sec [which i dont
think is related and probably
Right, 0.63.1ubuntu12 loads Xorg to a lesser extent. I've previously
commented with 0.63.1ubuntu11 still in my system.
The latest version does not even trigger CPU freqency scaling, so it's
better than nothing.

Update Manager causes high Xorg CPU usage when checking for updates
I ran across this bug because bug #528925 makes this very evident. It
seems to me this bug is actually in synaptic as that is another of the
big CPU consumers in top and I can reproduce the same behavior by
running Reload in synaptic. I'm guessing update-manager is actually
calling synaptic to do
I've instructed myself a bit on how to use gdb and went after the bug.

I've noticed this problem as well (with the radeon and intel drivers on
separate machines). My impression is that the GtkProgressbar widget is
causing the excessive CPU usage (at least during the installation of
updates).

Could this be SRU'd? It seems like a rather serious issue, and has a

I'v tried changing the human theme's engine used for the progressbar
from murrine to clearlooks/industrial but still the cpu usage is high.
Another issue is , the same progressbar is used while downloading the
packages , but that doesnt cause raise in cpu usage.
So this doesnt seem theme

The only thing I can think of is the download progress bar that may
cause high load on the xserver. I do not think this is a update-manager
bug, more either theme, gtk or the xserver. What card/driver are you
using?

That progress bar doesn't cause as much load anywhere else... and it
seems to be pretty consistent across machines and themes. I'll
confirm that later.
