Public bug reported: Binary package hint: cron
Updatedb is invocted every day by cron. When it is started it is not possible to work on other things like use Firefox with many tabs or write a letter in Openoffice since updatedb runs on a very high priority! Please change the default cron script that it goes more like this: ionice -c 2 -n 7 nice -n 19 updatedb Thant would make the computer still usable while the service runs!!! ** Affects: cron (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- updatedb runs on a too high priority https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134692 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
