This fix appears to have corrected the problem, at least for me. I no longer see the CPU at 100% when I log in after a major software upgrade. -- sreadahead uses 100 % of the CPU in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/421116 You received this bug notification because you are a member of

Scott, is the intented behaviour of sreadahead to run only once, or after each reboot ? If it is meant to run only once as you said, then there definately is a problem, because it keeps running after the first one. -- sreadahead uses 100 % of the CPU in Karmic

I am seeing this on every reboot, not just the first. I just rebooted twice in a row without doing any updates. The system had been running smoothly overnight before the first reboot, then I let sreadahead finish before rebooting again and it started up again. If this is considered normal behavior

i can confirm this annoying behaviour in karmic64bit. for some reason sreadahead keeps popping up after every reboot with 100%cpu for 10+ seconds. quite a nuisance. (and yes, this wasn't the case before readahead was replaced by sreadahead) -- sreadahead uses 100 % of the CPU in Karmic

This is quite normal, it takes a few minutes after the first boot to generate the lists - it's operating as a very low priority so shouldn't affect system performance. If you don't let it finish, it will be slow every time you boot ;-) ** Changed in: sreadahead (Ubuntu) Status: New =

I can confirm this bug as I've seen the same behavior. After a fresh boot, when I log in my CPU is running at 100% and the culprit is sreadahead. sreadahead then exits after a minute or so. If you want, you can disable sreadahead by editing the file at /etc/init/sreadahead.conf and commenting
