To clarify, when the original problem was discovered in cosmic the CPU usage was around 80%, and the fix made it less than 50% [1].
But now even without the fix (although in bionic, still using the same hardware), CPU usage for the same test case is around 50%. So indeed the main issue seems to be gone. What I can't figure out is why the problem isn't reproducible in bionic even when the root cause was introduced in bionic version 1.52.1-1ubuntu1. The bug and the effect of the fix was much more obvious in cosmic and disco... Still, gjs version 1.52.5-0ubuntu18.04.1 eliminates even the theoretical possibility of the CPU problem and it allows us to drop all patches \o/ [1] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/236 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gjs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803271 Title: [regression] Much higher CPU during some gnome-shell operations To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gjs/+bug/1803271/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
