I've been experiencing this issue as well. It occurs on my multi-user system.
I am able to reproduce this: 1. Log in as user A 2. Via the user applet log in concurrently as user B 3. Log out as user B 4. Enter password of user A 5. Scroll mouse wheel and see the CPU utilisation rise. A quick workaround is Alt+F2 and running "imwheel -k". I admit - a launcher for a script would be even quicker. I don't have time for debugging this but i don't see it as relevant as the development of imwheel has stopped 5 years ago. But at least I've found this bug report with a nice new alternative - btnx. Thanks! -- imwheel causes heavy load, depending on setting of -f switch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/90631 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
