I have already tested that. * Only throbber: ~15-20% CPU usage * Only progress bar: ~15-20% CPU usage * Both throbber and progress bar: ~15-20% CPU usage * Both disabled: no CPU usage
@Gunter: I measured CPU usage on Linux with `htop`, where the percentage is always relative to 1 core. 15% means 15% of 1 core. Using full 2 cores would show up as 200%. > 100% of one CPU normally doesn't indicate that something is amiss: The CPU could be asleep 99% of the time and be busy 1% of the remaining time. I don't understand this sentence. If the CPU is asleep 99% of the time, CPU usage in `htop` should show up as roughly 1%, not 100%. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/109943 Title: Thunderbird: high CPU usage from progress bars To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/109943/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
