This fix doesn't take into account multi-processor systems. I suggest that the system information be suppressed if the load average divided by the number of CPUs is greater than 1. As it stands right now landscape- sysinfo is disabled 100% of the time for my 8 core server, even though a load average of 1 would be considered low. I have attached a patch with my suggested change.
I know that counting processors in /proc/cpuinfo isn't accurate when HyperThreading is being used, but I couldn't think of a simple and effective way to determine the number of real cores. So hopefully someone much smarter than me will come up with a snippet of bash to resolve the issue. ** Patch added: "landscape-sysinfo.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/landscape-client/+bug/608278/+attachment/1545193/+files/landscape-sysinfo.patch -- Don't run landscape-sysinfo if the load is high https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608278 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
