[Lubuntu-desktop] Resources on 11.04
Devs: Recently installed 11.04 and i'm surprised by the RAM and CPU% consumed by Lubuntu in this release (I was keeping my main machine with 10.04 but decided to change to be able to help a little more). Back in 10.04 my ram consumption was below 75MB... now the system starts above 100MB / the CPU was always below 10%... now is almost all the time at 30%. Everything is faster, scrolls are better, the theme renders nicely (thanks Rafael), pcmanfm work very well... but as far as i understand, if lubuntu is a distro intended for low spec hardware (and for old machines) normally the ram consumption should be decreasing over the releases... not the opposite. Just my point of view. -- jpxsat ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Resources on 11.04
Thanks for your kind words :) We're working on it, on making everything fast and light, but some things we cannot control gone wild. For example, the new kernel, 3.0, seems to be faster. I'm tetsing right now and I'm very surprised about its speed. But I'm not sure if this is the reason. Also, the programs evolution sometimes get bigger (and their libraries), that's why we change sometimes an application by default. http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/ http://www.lubuntu.net/ 2011/6/21 Jean-Pierre Vidal Piesset jpx...@gmail.com Devs: Recently installed 11.04 and i'm surprised by the RAM and CPU% consumed by Lubuntu in this release (I was keeping my main machine with 10.04 but decided to change to be able to help a little more).

Regards, Julien Lavergne Changed the theme (a shame) and cpu is back to normal, thanks Julien. -- jpxsat ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Back in 10.04 my ram consumption was below 75MB... now the system starts above 100MB Since 10.04, we add more features, and it probably takes more ressources than expected. For example, we lost 10 Mb of RAM for update-notifier Oh, i forgot to say that i was aware of update-notifier, and the resources consumption i was telling you before are without this app running (removed from startup apps) -- jpxsat ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
