Although not using Ubuntu directly, I am using Mint, which is based on it (Tina - 19.2, based on Bionic, MATE edition). Might be the same problem. If not applicable, then please ignore my comment. I can reproduce this in all machines I have, in a few simple steps:
1-Open a terminal and leave 'top' open to check the processes; 2-Open 'xed' 3-Press shift inside of xed 4-Look at the terminal running top 5-To make it stop using 100% cpu, simply change focus to any window other than xed (the terminal, for example). This happens everytime, and is really annoying. If I try to copy text (ctrl-c), it triggers the bug as well, and forces me to change focus to have the system become usable again. I have attached a screenshot of my top output while the bug is happening. Before triggering it, all processes were running below 1% according to top. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot at 2020-01-07 11-15-44.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1766503/+attachment/5318215/+files/Screenshot%20at%202020-01-07%2011-15-44.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1766503 Title: ibus-* randomly use high CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/1766503/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
