Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-applets
The music applet uses large amounts of CPU when rhythmbox is playing.
Usually (although not always) the music applet will be using between 30
and 70% of a CPU when all it is (apparently) doing is updating a string
every second. This is much, much more than rhythmbox which is actually
playing the music.
For example, a line from top:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
7143 robin 20 0 339m 38m 13m S 40 1.9 116:40.65 python
(this process is:
7143 ? S 117:15 python /usr/lib/gnome-applets/music-applet
--oaf-activate-iid=OAFIID:GNOME_Music_Applet_Factory --oaf-ior-fd=21
)
** Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
