When I kill xwin-xdg-menu the X server does not exit. I have often found the X applications menu to not appear at startup at all, I will check next time if that correlates with high cpu.
I will also check ~/.xsession-errors next time this happens. Right now I do not have at-spi-bus-launcher running, xwin-xdg-menu takes very little cpu and its menu is present in the notification area. I start X as follows, in a .bat file: C:\cygwin64\bin\run.exe --quote /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c "cd; exec /usr/bin/startxwin" On Wed, May 24, 2017 at 8:32 PM, Jon Turney wrote: > On 22/05/2017 14:39, miserable variable wrote: >> >> I regularly see these two processes taking more that 25% CPU Time >> each, as reported by ProcessExplorer. > > > This shouldn't be happening. > >> I have often terminated both not been able to notice any functionality >> lost, but I am sure I am missing something. > > > I would expect killing xwin-xdg-menu to cause the X server to exit, and it's > X applications menu to disappear from the notification area. > > I'm not sure if you mean that doesn't happen, or it does but you don't > notice? > >> Is there something in my setup causing this? > > >> I have attached /var/log/XWin.0.log and output from cygcheck -s -v -r. >> The latter is quite big and exceed maximum size for this list, I have >> deleted lines matching 'missing.*python2' of which there were many to >> stay within the limit. > > > Thanks.
