Re: Bug report: hildon-desktop cpu usage, result=causes slow battery drain
 

I could reproduse the same thing using a mymenu based hildon.menu.
So I guess it has nothing to do with catorise itself.

I can easily trigger te bug but quickly entering and leaving submenus a couple of times.
It must be something in hildon-desktop.

I created a hildon-desktop from the latest git source. At first it seemed to help a bit, but this submenu issue is still there.

BTW, in my case (i.e. catorise), running a program after triggering the bug sees the high CPU use end, until one messes with the sub-menus.

HA

Re: Bug report: hildon-desktop cpu usage, result=causes slow battery drain
 

I just found another way to temporary fix the problem.
Just rename hildon.menu to some other name and then back again.
e.g.

mv hildon.men hildon.menu.notnow
sleep 1
mv hildon.menu.notnow hildon.menu

Maybe this could be a trigger to really solve the problem!

anyone found a solution to this yet? for me, either a reboot or a kill works too (but the latter sometimes causes weird graphical artifacts on my device)

I really hate this bug. Isn't it possible to create a workaround or something to fix this?
Has anyone already voted for it? https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10412

Catorize was the cause for high CPU usage in hildon-desktop, will report with screenshots once Battery Graph confirms this short term finding.

Battery graph showed CPU activity overnight while in offline mode and I was wondering why the battery lasts so little. Thanks to those of you that investigated this even further.

Unbelievable how the N900 behaves after uninstalling Catorize!!

Browsing the web is smoother than ever, all menus and options pop up instantly, programs seem to start quicker, navigation is blazing fast. I almost can not believe how fast it is, not to mention battery seems to lasts much longer now.

I had the N900 with Catorize installed almost from the beginning, I'll be very careful from now on what programs I'll be using on this device, it's like a totally different experience now.

Here is the before and after pic just to confirm the CPU usage while in Offline mode, see the time when it wasn't used, usually 1am to 6am:

Catorise is not the cause, it is only the trigger. They are different things. Catorise is bug free; it's hildon-desktop which is broken.

Presumably someone could identify and fix hildon-desktop, submit a patch and release a new version; or even identify the specific circumstances in which it occurs (because installing Catorise, MyMenu or ApMeFo is not enough in all cases)

Is this hildon-desktop bug fixed yet?
