[Bug 426556] Re: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage
On Precise, I seem to be suffering from this bug too. I have a laptop that I suspend/resume several times a day. After a few days doing this routine, resume become slower and slower. And when I do a "top" after resume, I notice that polykitd is pretty high (40 - 60%), then gnome- shell is at 100% for a few dozen seconds... If I reboot my laptop, everything is fine again for some time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 Title: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/426556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same here on a rather old Sony notebook. Deactivating acpid calmed dbus, policykit and kde down. (Unfortunately I did not jet understand which ACPI function caused the problem - it's not on my own notebook.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 Title: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/426556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I found on xubuntu 10.10 (upgraded from 09.10) dbus-daemon using 67% and that making 100%cpu used then read this and tryd removing .pulse then in gigolo unmount Windows partition BUT needed sudo so i sudo gigolo then unmounted Windows partition and closed Gigolo then tryd also removing cd rom and after few seconds dbus-daemon was 0% SO one of theese thing helped. tryd putting CD back again that didnt made 100%cpu for a long time. after restart if Windows mounting will be making 100% ill be back and tell u otherwise bye for now -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 Title: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I had the same problem because of OSS.

Oh, and also, got the CPU leak problem again. However, the fix this time is to delete ~/.pulse. Must have been caused by a recent update.

[Bug 426556] Re: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage
Found the problem, but in fixing it I have no idea what fixed it. Someone suggested to me that the problem was one of the hidden folders in the Home directory. I went through a few folders that I thought might have been problems, and in doing so was able to fix it. Unfortunately, I don't remember what I deleted, only that it was one of those that can respawn (so it isn't any of the application data directories).

[Bug 426556] Re: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage
I also had this or a similar problem. "polkitd" used lots of my resources. My "dbus-monitor --system" output looked the same, but syslog is a little bit different to Alex Peters. syslog showed this messages: Apr 10 00:29:38 localhost pulseaudio[4468]: module-device-restore.c: Failed to open volume database '/home/mikey/.pulse/14e15c3974578d407ec6bec04bbe12c0-device-volumes': Permission denied Apr 10 00:29:38 localhost pulseaudio[4468]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-device-restore" (argument: ""): initialization failed.

I suspect it was because i copied my home folder from another machine so that the symlink to the file in tmp wasn't set correctly (maybe also after an upgrade). After deleting my "~/.pulse/" directory the problem disappeared. I don't know if this is the exactly same problem, as the opener of the bug report has, but maybe it helps. -- policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My current workaround for this issue is the following cron job: */30 * * * * root killall -KILL polkitd since regularly killing the process doesn't appear to affect the system negatively in any way. -- policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 426556] Re: policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage
I am experiencing this upon upgrading from Karmic to Lucid Beta 2. The process "polkitd" is sucking up a lot of CPU and accumulates memory usage over time until it maxes out the memory. This is also affecting dbus-daemon. And yes, PulseAudio does seem to take up quite a bit of CPU at times. -- policykit cause high dbus-daemon cpu usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In my case, syslog is going crazy with these lines being output multiple times per second: Mar 26 13:46:20 europa pulseaudio[20254]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-sink" (argument: "sink_name=M2496_out device=hw:M2496 format=s32le channels=10 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7"): initialization failed.

Mar 26 13:46:20 europa rtkit-daemon[1326]: last message repeated 14 times Based on this, I now wonder whether this also shows buggy behaviour in PulseAudio.

On my machine, top reports polkitd as consuming 1.5 gigabytes of resources and consistently hogging 30% of the CPU.
