Package: amarok Version: 1.4.7-1+b1 Severity: normal While using Amarok to manage podcasts episodes on my MP3 player, I noticed bursts of high CPU usage (I have noisy fans to alert me of this). When I investigated, I found that the process responsible is the X server. Now, Amarok was essentially idle -- I wasn't playing any music, just transfering already-downloaded episodes to the player.
I think -- but can't be sure -- that the bursts were synchronised with the "wave" Amarok puts in the visualization area every few seconds (when there's no music and no visualization set). Each such burst sent the X server to a couple of seconds of 100% CPU usage. The one thing I am really sure of (and I tested again while writing the bug) is that these bursts startes when I started Amarok, and stopped when I quit it. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-686 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages amarok depends on: ii amarok-engines 1.4.7-1+b1 output engines for the Amarok audi ii amarok-xine [amarok-eng 1.4.7-1+b1 xine engine for the Amarok audio p ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-7 core libraries and binaries for al ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.19-3 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libaudio2 1.9-2+b1 The Network Audio System (NAS).
