Public bug reported:
It seems that the rt-kitdaemon has a couple of threads that ensure
rtkit-daemon is sane, namely a watchdog and canary monitoring thread.
These are waking up by default every 5000ms, which between them means
rtkit-daemon is creating 24 wakeups a minute just doing sanity
checking.
Apparently one can specify the canary cheep and canary watchdog times
via --canary-cheep-msec and --canary-watchdog-msec options. Is is
possible to tweak these to make rtkit-daemon do less wakeups and save a
small amount of power?
