I am not suggesting that clients modify anything. That would be very racy. I am suggesting that clients have access to an API that reads and parses this file under the hood (ie. the file is considered internal private "API" to Zeitgeist, but dedicated libs are allowed to access it). I think we may wanna move in this direction too anyway if/when we enable WAL on the main db which can allow clients direct read-only access to the db (still through our APIs ofcourse, but avoiding the dbus roundtrips). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Zeitgeist Framework Team, which is subscribed to Zeitgeist Framework. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772265 Title: The datahub starts zeitgeist-daemon on startup Status in Zeitgeist Client Library: New Status in Zeitgeist Framework: New Status in Zeitgeist Datahub: New Bug description: We have been advising distros put zeitgeist-datahub into the autostart section for the sessions. This is better in theory because this way we only start a native daemon on login and can defer the launching of the heavier Python process zeitgeist-daemon. Unfortunately zeitgeist-datahub does DBus activation of the zeitgeist- daemon on startup so we really don't get the benefits we wanted. Bootcharts from Ubuntu 11.04 indicates that ZG eats about 1s on the login time and I don't think that is acceptable for ZG in the longer run. That is - no catastrophe for 11.04, but we should fix this. (a related issue seems to be that the dbus activated zeitgeist-daemon seems to launch another datahub instance that then immediately becomes a zombie... ? :-/) _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
