Package: ethstatus Version: 0.4.3 Severity: normal I use 2.6.30.3 and ethstatus uses 30-35% of CPU, which is a lot. I think even bigger issue is that ethstatus is updating the display very frequently, so I suspect there is way too much oversampling. If one is running ethstatus locally then this is not a big deal, but if one is running on a remote machine, then it sudenly consumes 95KiB/s (near maximum bandwith at my place) and hence interferes too much with actual measurements and destroys its purpose :( I also checked iptraf and it does NOT have such issues, the console bandwith is limited to 8-10KiB/s, however iptraf is only for super user.
Please consider adding some sleep (300ms or so) in between the measurements (and also display updates), human eye is not that fast anyway. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30.3-d630 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=lt_LT.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=lt_LT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ethstatus depends on: ii libc6 2.9-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.7+20090523-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ethstatus recommends no packages. ethstatus suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
