After upgrading to maverick I have noticed this problem. While update-manager is in the "Building Data Structures" state, Xorg CPU usage is 80%+ on my Core2Quad6600. There are other situations in which Xorg consumes an unusually high amount of CPU time. Examples: - Frequently adding lines of text in gnome-terminal (eg. output while running apt-get upgrade) - Scrolling pages in firefox - Scrolling text in Eclipse
It appears that xorg is inefficiently repainting large areas of the screen, and update-manager is one was to reliably reproduce this issue. Video card is nvidia GeForce GTS 8600 running current nvidea proprietary driver. Is there any diagnostic information I can provide? -- During "Building data structures" when starting the update-manager Xorg takes up 100% cpu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/595845 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
