High cpu use #79

Closed kokoko3k closed 7 years ago

kokoko3k commented 7 years ago

On my laptop, when there is no internet connection and the widgets show the spinning animation, the cpu use is very high (it reaches even 40% - i3-3110M CPU @ 2.40GHz). Maybe is plasma fault, maybe is qt fault, i don't know, but would it be possible to insert a preference to disable the spinning animation and just show a static "refreshing..."?

Thanks and keep up the good work!

How do you even know it's this widget's problem?

kokoko3k commented 7 years ago

Several things points in that direction: 1) plasmashell process is taking the cpu use i speak about. 2) As soon as the network is back and the spinning circle stops spinning, the cpu is back to 1% 3) if i remove the widget, cpu is back to 1% 4) if i move the widget to the tray area and back to the desktop, for some reason the spinning animation is no more and cpu goes to 1%

I see you closed this one, are you unable to reproduce my findings?
