[Bug 830333] Re: randomly, update-apt-xapi will take 100% cpu for an extended period of time

[Tal Liron]

More information about the "fix" -- it helps, but does not solve the
problem.

I still get jittery video about once a day when using the netbook. I'm
sure a lot users on weaker machines are having this problem, but don't
know enough to diagnose what's causing it, and thus just think "Ubuntu
is very slow".

This bug, including its older dupes, is *years* old. Can someone who
knows anything about Xapian fix this? Can we at least assign it to
someone who can help?
