I can confirm the problem, and it seems it is due to us reading syslog and syslog getting constant updates. ( tail -f /var/log/syslog).
The script needs to parse every syslog line for potential apparmor errors which is expensive. There was another issue with listening on the pipes but it alone did not solve the problem. Only completely disabling the parsing of syslog updates stops python from taking up CPU. The question is now do we want to drop reading syslog files or do we live with the CPU consumption... Another question is though why syslog is flooded with messages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584093 Title: Running an app on the phone with the SDK gets python spinning on 100% cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-developer-experience/+bug/1584093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
