may or may not help but I've done the following. Put a process
metersystem monitor in the taskbar and when it shows something working
in the background, as in, a program did not quit(some online video stuff
does this among other items), I can tell something is still hogging cpu
time and then go to top to kill the process using cli. This happened
just the other day. Some video I had watched online left something
going on even when I closed the browser so I saw that the system monitor
was active at about 25% and I had no programs open, went to top and
killed one of the video players that was using all the current cpu
usage. Then went back to work. It happens. EZ to fix. HTH
Cheers

I've noticed that my Debian testing desktop slows downs significantly

desktop impossible when copying or unpacking large files, This
happened on all my Debian desktops, on different hardware and on
stable, testing and sid. I have also Funtoo installed, Funtoo remains
responsive during the same operations. Therefor I suspect it must be
an configuration problem.
Is there an (kernel)option that need to be changed to increase
performance? Thus far I have tried changing Preemption Model and Timer
frequency without noticeable results. Thanks in advance!
