When using strace against scoperegistry in this state, the output gets *flooded* with the following until I interrupt strace:
[pid 10491] futex(0x443a14, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 1) = 0 [pid 10491] futex(0x443a3c, FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET_PRIVATE|FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME, 244392527, {633437444, 854775807}, ffffffff) = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection timed out) Now, googling for it reveals several problems like this (for various programs) caused by the leap second (it so happens that leap seconds were added on Jun 30/Jul 1 this year). Could this be the issue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1470750 Title: scoperegistry uses 45% CPU after applying updates from the store, draining battery quickly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1470750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
