Public bug reported:
Not sure what to make of this, but the process when installing updates
is very slow. Very long period of lowest level CPU use and nothing
happening interspersed with huge spikes in CPU. What's wors is the apps
every other application freezes intermittently when a package manager is
installing, even browsing the web is interrupted by long periods of
unresponsive applications. It's normal to have cpu lulls and spikes
using update manager and synaptic, but the periods of heavy processor
use don't correspond with the unresponsive apps. Also, it does not seem
to occur with command line package managers. So my conclusion is there
is something that's causing GUI package management to take over the
system's cpu on an intermittent basis interfering with usability.
system is an Acer Aspire One (on which everything but the package
manager from GUI seems quite speedy.)
