Package: knode Version: 4:3.5.9-3 Severity: normal
powertop shows a very high number (around 1000/s) of cpu wakeups for knode, which is a very bad thing i.e. for laptop use. A little digging in the source reveals that the protocol client does select() calls with a timeout of 1000 usec. Changing the relevant timeouts to 1 s resolves the problem (I use this approach since about three months now, no bad side effects as far as I can see.) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (1000, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25.4-tuxonice-2glowmem (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages knode depends on: ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-4 core libraries and binaries for al ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.1-3 GCC support library ii libkdepim1a 4:3.5.9-3 KDE PIM library ii libkleopatra1 4:3.5.9-3 KDE GnuPG interface libraries ii libkmime2 4:3.5.9-3 KDE MIME interface library ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.8b-5 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++6 4.3.1-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 knode recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
