Public bug reported: Binary package hint: zenity
This happens on one one of my 2 Gutsy installations: $ zenity --version 2.19.2 $ zenity --calendar # doesn't matter if it's calendar or an other option [2] 21245 $ top -n 1 [...] PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 21245 hcz 25 0 29772 16m 14m R 92.3 1.9 0:05.02 zenity Note the 92% CPU load. $ strace -o st zenity --calendar $ less st [...] ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 gettimeofday({1190107409, 553219}, NULL) = 0 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 2147483647) = 0 gettimeofday({1190107409, 553298}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 gettimeofday({1190107409, 553376}, NULL) = 0 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, 2147483647) = 0 [... etc., ad nauseam ...] Of course, all other applications get slowed down quite remarkable while this is running. My other installation of Gutsy on another machine behaves well under the same circumstances. ** Affects: zenity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- zenity eats CPU time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140645 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
