gnome-shell stays at ~20% CPU when using Maximus Two #32

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

For some reason Version 4 of this extension is causing gnome-shell to run at a consistent 20-25% CPU. I've noticed similar complaints on Pixels Saver extension, so perhaps it's some shared code between the two extensions.

I've not seen any problems with Version 2 of Maximus Two, so the CPU eating bugs were introduced in Version 3 or 4.

Which OS and version of Gnome shell are you using?

lbrfabio commented 9 years ago

I have a similar problem. After a while gnome-shell run at ~95% CPU. This happened even after I disabled all the extensions except Maximus Two (v3 and v4). I don't have any problems with Maximus Two v2

Fedora 22, Gnome-Shell 3.16.

Ubuntu 15.04 Gnome 3.14

Same problem. MaximusTwo causes gnome-shell to eat 100% of the CPU core after certain time of activity.

$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 3.16.3

It appears that log has some hints about it: http://pastebin.com/XHGNwyii

I've downgraded to v2 of the extension and have no trouble with CPU craziness.

33 seems to have fixed this bug for me on 3.14

zakkak commented 9 years ago

I also observe 95-100% CPU usage after some period.

ArchLinux 64bit Gnome 3.18

@zakkak try this branch which has a fix (#33) for the problem. Use it until @wilfm can merge in the fix from @danielkza - it should eliminate the high CPU usage.

+1, patch seems to be working for me. (protip, I used the patch version of the PR https://github.com/danielkza/GnomeExtensionMaximusTwo/commit/4c716528693e03574151fd61e7fb8d085e5b69ca.patch instead of having to clone the repo.)

zakkak commented 8 years ago

Patch works fine for me as well.

@xHN35RQ thanks for pointing out.

ghost commented 8 years ago

I'm closing this since I've found a solution, and @danielkza has a pull request with the fix so once that pull request is merged everything will be good.
