Package: libpoe-perl Version: 0.3202-1 Severity: important When you use POE, two times delay_set (e.g. for timers) and also pTk your perl-script ueses much too much CPU-time (on my machine - Athlon XP 2200+ - with two 1-second-delays up to 100%). Without using Tkt the script works fine and uses about 0-1%.
The gentoo version (0.3009) and the libpoe-perl version of sarge (stable) work fine. At the moment I'm using this package on debian/testing to avoid that problem. I've also written a short script showing the problem: http://m19s28.vlinux.de/estel/debian/poe. When using strace you recognize that gettimeofdate() is called by POE. I guess that is quite normal as POE provides support for delays. However, without using Tk POE calls gettimeofdate() maybe about 10 times per second, but running the script and using Tk it is hardly possible to count. If you use longer intervalls for you delays the script uses less CPU, but still too much. Unfortunatley I haven't found anything usefull yet, so I don't know wether this is a POE or a (Perl-)Tk problem or there is any solution available.
