[Bug 419054] Re: kdeinit4: plasma-desktop takes 60-90% of CPU

[Laurent Claessens]

Well ... The fact to remove the "Note" *seems* to make my X feel better.
I still get 70% on X and 25% on plasma-desktop at start (with or without
locking the applets). But when I "fix" the situation[1], I get 20%-0%
(ok) and the bug it seems not to get back. That information has to be
taken with some care.

Now I'm removing the "View of a directory". I have no more applets but
the taskbar[2].

I would like to add that I'm using the theme Tania, which implies quite
a lot of transparencies effects when Compiz is activated.

Can I get, in some way, a valuable information via gdb or something ?
Please, feel free to ask the output of any command lines (other than
sudo cat /etc/shadow ;)  )

PS : Just to be sure to speak the same language : "applet", "widget" and
"plasmoid " are three words for the same, or there is a difference ?

[1] In order to get back 20%-0%, I lock and unlock a certain amount of
time, and at a certain point, by some magics, the CPU usage gets right.
Sometime, the fact to open the DesktopSetting (by the right click) gives
also back the 20%-0%.

[2] My bar contains :  K menu, two clocks, the notification tray, the
list of connected disks, the battery state, and a countdown (which stays
at 00:00 most of time).
