Hmm, that's funny. When I use the GPG command line I don't get this behaviour either. However, when I decrypt a file in nautilus or in gedit (using the GPG plugin) or when I sign or decrypt a message in evolution, I get 100% CPU usage while the dialog is open.
I see something similar, but it is Evolution that uses the CPU, not seahorse-daemon. I reported this upstream as <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350007>. Does your seahorse-agent use 100% of the cpu, or share it half-and-half with evolution? -- Sam Morris http://robots.org.uk/ PGP key id 1024D/5EA01078 3412 EA18 1277 354B 991B C869 B219 7FDB 5EA0 1078
