I just tried thunderbird 16.0.1. I get the similar numbers as David: > - calls gettimeofday about 200 000 times
I do not see this. > - trying to open different files in /usr/share/mime, 20 000 times > - trying to open gedit.desktop in different directories, 1300 times Those show up. I do not have a file global-messages-db.sqlite-journal. So solution #14 does not apply. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/927515 Title: thunderbird uses excessive cpu power Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Just received the automatic update last night. Ever since, thunderbird is using 20-50% CPU constantly, according to top. Turned off global search and indexing to no avail. This is really bad for me as it's driving up the temperature of my laptop, runs up the fan noise and reduces battery time.
