Then I killed xdaliclock. :) Now it's > running at less than 1.5% :) Usually around 1-1.3% xdaliclock!!! no wonder! e has to recalculate the dropshadow shapes all the time - i mean i spent a lot of time optimsing that heavily, but... doing realtime gaussian blurrs takes a bit of grunt. > With or without it (xdaliclock), I don't see much impact though. well thats mostly the kernel - e will use cpu when it needs it - as much as it can get - then go back to idling waiting for something it needs to do. your kernel will handle 5giving up the cpu to e and takign it away as needed. e doesnt run threads or fork 1000's of processes so its only 1 slot in your kernel's process table and thus should have minimal impact in general - even if eating 100% cpu. > AMD Sempron 3000+ > 1gig memory. > > -- > Until later, Geoffrey > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
