[Bug 1860985] Re: packagekitd using 100% CPU

[Owen Savill]

So now running at about 33% CPU. It was a broken update PPA. Really!
Exactly how many times a second are the PPAs being checked for updates?!
It's a broken PPA, surely the package manager can handle a broken PPA
better than 100% CPU usage. And exactly what is it doing that requires
20% CPU usage when it's idle?!

Is there an admin program for this? I think it only needs to update a
couple of times a day. The only admin I've found offers very few options
as to the frequency of update checking and none of them seem to work. It
slows down boot, even though this should be disabled and it's consuming
far too much CPU given that it's showing as auto checks disabled.
