This just started happening to me in Ubuntu jaunty; when bringing up a dialog in various Gnome apps, there is a twenty-five second delay before it appears, during which time the app appears to be frozen. I'm not sure if it affects every application, but I see it in various situations: * bringing up the preferences dialog in Transmission * bringing up a load or save file dialog in gedit * bringing up a file dialog in GIMP * bringing up a file dialog in Firefox * etc
If I do an strace of the process, the delay appears to be in waiting for a poll() to time out immediately after a write that looks tracker- related. I'll attach a snippet of an strace log of Transmission after I try to open the preferences dialog -- you can clearly see the 25-second delay on lines 40-41. Is there any additional information I can gather that would help figure out what's causing this? ** Attachment added: "strace log of delay in bringing up Transmission preferences dialog" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27589588/transmission.log -- Certain apps experiencing slowness under latest gnome in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/196011 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
