Today I tested the newest version in proposed. The problem seems largely fixed, but not quite.
When I check the system load caused by gnome-system-monitor using the command "top" in the terminal, the CPU load is almost imperceptible. That's good. But when I check the system load by double-clicking gnome-system- monitor, so that it opens it's own full-size window, I see the crazy values again (confirmed by top). 15 % CPU, with peaks as high as 21 %. So it appears that as long as you use gnome-system-monitor only as a little meter in the panel, there's no problem with this new version. But do not double-click it, for then the trouble starts. For most practical puposes the meter is therefore allright now. Upstream should deal with the remaining problem, though. -- 2.22.3 stable update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245197 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
