After years of high CPU usage with gnome-shell and not finding the issue, I finally found this bug report, disable showing the seconds of the clock in the top panel and now the CPU usage is between 0-1% instead of 40% and more. What the heck? Thank you!
Still clock_gettime is active 71% of the time but the overall usage is no minimal. Maybe my battery will last longer now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773959 Title: High CPU usage by gnome-shell when only running gnome-terminal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1773959/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
