Public bug reported: Hello! We are using Ubuntu 11.04 on EC2 (ami-1aad5273 from Canonical), and setting "byobu_by_default: system" via cloud-init. Logging in, byobu launches, but the system becomes unresponsive for long periods of time. After looking in top, I see byobu-status is the culprit, taking up most of the CPU and making the machine not even SSHable, leaving us with a load average of about 3 on a single CPU machine. I tried chmod -x'ing byobu-status, but this only seemed to make things work, perhaps it is attempting to call it infinitely until it succeeds?
We aren't customizing anything with screen / byobu as far as I know! I found https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/byobu/+question/153434 though it was unanswered so I'm not sure if it is related. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, and let me know what debugging info I can provide. Thanks :D ** Affects: byobu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/823581 Title: byobu-status causes high cpu usage / system load To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/byobu/+bug/823581/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
