Subject: Emacs using too much CPU
Date: 17 May 2004 10:00:28 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <vv08yfr2gdf.fsf@quandary.nsc.com> (raw)

Hi All

I have this pesky little problem with emacs: it is always running at
around 55% CPU utilization. I have been trying to figure out what is
causing it without any avail. 

I tried truss on it. Seems to be trying to open a ".#vm-inbox" file in
my mail directory. vm-inbox is the primary inbox for VM mail reader
and also writes a lot to the X11-pipe (my guess).

I know this is not enough information for a solution. But maybe
someone has some idea on how to find out which program within emacs is
using the CPU so much.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks 
Satya
