Subject: bug#5535: 23.1.50; emacs daemon high CPU load even while ununsed
Date: Sat, 06 Feb 2010 17:57:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <867hqqnyqp.fsf@djcbsoftware.nl> (raw)
I noted that Emacs (emacs --daemon) takes a lot of of CPU (up to 80%), even
when I am not using it. I am starting emacs --daemon from my ~/.gnomerc, which
is invoked when I start my X session.
I used strace to see what was going on:
gettimeofday({1265471350, 42334}, NULL) = 0
read(0, "", 4096) = 0
write(2, "Back to top level.", 18) = 18
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
poll([{fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1265471350, 42538}, NULL) = 0
read(0, "", 4096) = 0
write(2, "Back to top level.", 18) = 18
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
poll([{fd=7, events=POLLIN}], 1, 0) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1265471350, 42736}, NULL) = 0
read(0, "", 4096) = 0
write(2, "Back to top level.", 18) = 18
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
[...]
and this continues at high speed. Apparently, emacs calling the lisp function
normal-top-level in lisp/startup.el many, many times.
Hope this helps tracking down the issue.
Best wishes,
Dirk.
