Sorry - I meant to include a top output - and my MythTV computer is an old PIII 500Mhz with a PVR350 doing the real work - normally uptime says less than 1%
Top output with all the mythcommflag processes showing: top - 20:21:43 up 22:29, 2 users, load average: 41.02, 40.97, 40.85 Tasks: 79 total, 17 running, 62 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 0.5% us, 7.5% sy, 84.0% ni, 7.0% id, 0.3% wa, 0.8% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 384352k total, 381240k used, 3112k free, 3196k buffers Swap: 1048784k total, 496720k used, 552064k free, 45028k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 10502 mythty 32 17 58004 15m 26m R 4.1 4.0 56:05.00 mythcommflag 10536 mythty 32 17 57884 15m 26m R 4.1 4.0 54:28.60 mythcommflag 10612 mythty 32 17 57416 14m 26m S 4.1 4.0 51:33.52 mythcommflag 10620 mythty 33 17 57532 14m 26m R 4.1 4.0 51:57.16 mythcommflag 10654 mythty 32 17 57416 14m 26m R 4.1 4.0 50:58.88 mythcommflag 10706 mythty 33 17 57176 14m 26m R 4.1 4.0 49:26.95 mythcommflag 10528 mythty 33 17 58004 15m 26m R 3.0 4.0 55:29.58 mythcommflag 10544 mythty 32 17 57768 14m 26m R 3.0 4.0 54:11.15 mythcommflag 10628 mythty 32 17 57416 14m 26m R 3.0 4.0 51:32.77 mythcommflag 10672 mythty 32 17 57296 14m 26m R 3.0 4.0 50:14.16 mythcommflag 10586 mythty 33 17 57652 15m 26m R 2.0 4.0 52:36.24 mythcommflag 10698 mythty 32 17 57176 15m 26m R 2.0 4.0 49:47.63 mythcommflag 10714 mythty 33 17 57176 14m 26m R 2.0 4.0 49:31.21 mythcommflag 31 root 15 0 0 0 0 S 1.0 0.0 10:35.16 kswapd0 5179 root 15 0 42624 336 1468 S 1.0 0.1 0:00.16 nscd 10492 mythty 33 17 58236 15m 26m R 1.0 4.0 57:30.94 mythcommflag 10570 mythty 32 17 57652 14m 26m R 1.0 4.0 52:45.04 mythcommflag mythtv:~ # -----Original Message----- From: Derek Conniffe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 February 2005 11:48 To: 'mythtv-users@mythtv.org' Subject: 0.17 mythcommflag using all processor time Hi, I noticed that since I've upgraded from 0.16 to 0.17 that mythfrontend gets really slow and eventually can't connect to mythbackend (both are the same computer). The problem seems to be lots of mythcommflag processes that are using all the processor time. I didn't have a problem with this in 0.16 - and actually I don’t do anything with commercial flagging at all (so if I could disable it? Maybe mark the channels are commercial free?). Does anyone have any ideas why mythcommflag has got a bit mad? Thanks, Derek --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
