Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
Compiz uses 100% of a CPU when an amarok process is running.
With just k3b, kmail, ktorrent, and a few konqueror windows, it is still 10%.
All processes involved, other than compiz, are idle.
I noticed this while logging in (to the home machine) from work.
I am quite sure that the owner of these processes has all windows minimized,
since this is is what he always does.
(But 100% CPU usage to display an amarok window is a problem in any case.)
There are two other compiz.real processes running, from other users
that always close their applications, and their CPU usage is only 0.5%.
The machine is a 3GHz Core2 Duo, running up-to-date Ubuntu Hardy 8.04,
compiz 1:0.7.4-0ubuntu6,
nvidia-kernel-common 20051028+1ubuntu8,
nvidia-glx-new 169.12+2.6.24.12-16.34,
amarok 2:1.4.9.1-0ubuntu3+medibuntu1.
I would be happy to provide additional information.
Earlier bug reports (like 77164) mention similar issues, but they involve
earlier Ubuntu versions and seem to be closed.
