Package: guake
Version: 0.4.2-1
Severity: serious
Recently in my Debian unstable, guake became noticably slower. The
typing actually feels slower (keyboard latency), and 'top' reports that
Python uses ~6% of my dual core (constantly), Xorg about 32%. That adds
up to almost one whole core.
Why is Xorg cpu usage relevant? because both two processes decrease down
to zero (or almost zero) when guake is rolled-up (F12) or simply not in
focus.
Even when stracing guake, everything is peaceful when guake not focused.
When I start to focus it prints lots of lines like the following:
read(4, 0x2695f14, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource
temporarily unavailable)
I've been trying the vanilla guake 0.4.2, and same results. Furthermore,
I've tried guake 0.4.1 on the same computer and same results.
Thus I conclude that something in the environment (Xorg? Python or
pygtk?) has triggered the problem, and it's not necessary that something
is wrong within guake's code.
