Seems to be a duplicate of bug #340515 To determine if the vino server causes the problem (you can't use top/htop to view the cpu time in this case), you need to enter {{ ps ax|grep vino-server serveral times }} {{ 1) 3546 ?S 0:03 /usr/lib/vino/vino-server --sm-config-prefix

Same issue. Couldn't determine which process was taking up so much CPU time and top only showed a handful of precesses doing anything at all. Top showed vino hitting 5% now and again, but as soon as I uninstalled I went from 100% usage of one core down to normal (almost nothing). Important to

Same kind of problem here with Jaunty as well. I have just uninstalled vino and the problem went away entirely. Clearly there is a bug with the version of vino installed on 9.04. -- excessive CPU usage in 9.04- no apparent reason https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366292 You received this bug

Same kind of problem here with Jaunty. Fortunately in my case it only seems to show up when running Mathematica. After starting the program Mathematica, MathKernel and Java are using around 30-40% CPU despite being idle. -- excessive CPU usage in 9.04- no apparent reason

I have the same problem on a T9400 (Thinkpad W500). I'm running KDE though. System usage is 15% (which used to be 2%), and xorg is really laggy (a few seconds to swtich screens) with 10-40% cpu usage (which used to be 1-10% on 8.10). I also noticed that some idle processes (Mathematica,

Update: I spent the weekend agonizing over what process(es) could be using up all those CPU cycles. I finally caved and loaded XFCE4 (4.6) which seemed to solve the CPU issue- usage back down to the 0-18% range except for expected bursts during active processing. So... today I had occasion to

I get the same behavior on Dell Inspiron 6400, with Core2 T7200 CPU, the same as Latitude d820, but I cannot reproduce this behavior on a Dell Latitude e4200 with Core2 U9300 CPU. So I guess this doesn't happen on any Dell, but only for some of their models. -- excessive CPU usage in 9.04- no

FWIW, I've just loaded XFCE4 and CPU usage is now back to normal (4-9%) on the Dell Inspiron 6400. This seems to confirm, to some degree, that this unusual behavior is related to something in GNOME... strange. -- excessive CPU usage in 9.04- no apparent reason

Hello, I can confirm the same behavior on Dell Latitude d820. The Latitude d820 has Intel Core2 Duo CPU, so it is not an architecture related issue. I have seen this strange behavior for this laptop also in Fedora Core 9 and 10. ** Attachment added: Screenshot-htop.png
