Followup-For: Bug #316930

Hi, I had find hogging 99.9 percent of CPU time while running 
findutils.updatedb:

I have ionice installed.

My /etc/pam.d/su:

$ grep -v \# /etc/pam.d/su

auth       sufficient pam_rootok.so

session       required   pam_env.so readenv=1
session       required   pam_env.so readenv=1 
envfile=/etc/default/locale

session    optional   pam_mail.so nopen

@include common-auth
@include common-account
@include common-session

Do you have any suggestions for logging what is going on and better 
still ensuring that findutils.updatedb doesn't consume cpu time to the 
exclusion of everyting else?
