+1 here. My CPU is working overtime and here are the culprits. The top command revealed the following: [PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
3810 root 16 0 1728 516 420 S 21.8 0.0 4:02.02 dd 3784 root 16 0 1652 620 500 R 18.5 0.0 3:13.49 syslogd 3812 klog 15 0 2428 1312 384 S 3.3 0.1 0:44.97 klogd As you can see the CPU is being gobbled my those 3 programs that started running after I got the latest kernel updates and restarted. EDIT: When I did a ps -ef on PID 3810 this is what came up: ps -ef | grep 3810 root 3810 1 15 18:32 ? 00:04:03 /bin/dd bs 1 if /proc/kmsg of /var/run/klogd/kmsg -- syslogd, klogd using 100% cpu https://launchpad.net/bugs/64970 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
