Last work-around didn't stick. Did some test and can reproduce the error now easily in 17.04. Ubuntu reports it is the Indicator-datetime-service that crashes when its the evolution calendar that is the problem. During the system overload the problem can be fixed by killing all evolution processes and sub-processes indirectly.
Evolution is overloading the Indicator-datetime-service somehow with lots of (factory?) sub-processes. Attached screenshot of the processes active during the error. Resolved by killing the evolution processes in the screenshot. Also, this problem started after enabling Empathy on boot. However, after disabling Empathy completely at startup the problem persisted. Will update to 17.10 (KVM bug fixed) and see if the error is unresolved. ** Attachment added: "htop screenshot sorted by mem usage" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/1731939/+attachment/5010707/+files/Screenshot%20from%202017-11-17%2022-45-57.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1731939 Title: Indicator-datetime-service renders 25% CPU usage and 100% RAM To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/1731939/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
