Public bug reported: About 2 days after a reboot of my 14.04 system, the timidity daemon suddenly started using 100% of the cpu. That happened early in the morning when I was asleep, but I tracked it down using collectl data. I saw nothing unusual in the syslog at that time.
This has happened to me twice, and to other users, as documented at http://askubuntu.com/questions/828299/timidity-hogging-cpu- ubuntu-16-04/844221 I'm using Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 with kde.
