Title: periodic find task slow ubuntu to death Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Periodically something starts 'find' program in the background with readdir smth in options and it slows down ubuntu to the point the music and video got hiccups, mouse lags etc. I suspect it's smth related to package or locatedb updates but can't pinpoint the culprit yet. Anyway, the bugis in slowdown - background tasks should never-ever affect the interactive programs running by user. Ideally they should be started in dedicated, heavily policed systemd slice.
