I have this problem in Ubuntu 11.10. While behind a proxy, I open Empathy, which is unable to connect. Processor usage goes to 94% and the process using it is Telepathy-Gabble. I kill it but after a couple of minutes it is running again.
The major annoyance for me is that on my laptop this reduces battery life from 3 hours to a mere hour and a half or so. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/565749 Title: telepathy-gabble using up 100% of CPU after network went down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-gabble/+bug/565749/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
