Public bug reported: Hello,
when using empathy-chat on the latest quantal builds, I see relatively high CPU usage of empathy-chat when it is idle in the background connected to an irc chat session. Even with no activity on irc and the empathy windows in the background, the empathy-chat process constantly uses 9-10% of a CPU(i7 Ivy Bridge). I would expect to see hardly any CPU usage for an idle background process. This results in my laptop significantly increasing the power usage under light load usage conditions and thus shortens its battery life. ** Affects: empathy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1045925 Title: "High" CPU usage when empathy is idle in IRC To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/1045925/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
