Re: [opensuse] Beagle eats my CPU
----- Original Message ----
From: D Bera
Is there a release which doesn't eat the CPU (and disk bandwidth, and I/O buffers, for that matter) ?
Apparently yes (thats what people say).
Not by my experience with the most recent release.
This is something the upstream does not know - in fact, the feedback is that the recent releases work much better. I am curious what exact kind of problem(s) you are seeing. [snip snip...] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FWIW, and as only a single sample: In 10.2 Beagle ran flat out almost continuously. I created ~/.dontrunbeagle and it went away. (I was glad. I have no clue what beagle is for, and so far as I know, have never needed it, nor wanted it. But maybe I'm wrong!) One saving grace was my dual core machine. Only one core went to redline. In 10.3 it appears that my ~/.dontrunbeagle is ignored. However, I never see intense activity, so I'm not really bothered. (ps -ef | grep beagle shows beagle-related processes). Just one sample. Doesn't help if you're the one who's losing CPU to it.

Thanks for the feedback. Just for information, ~/.dontrunbeagle is ignored in the recent releases (it was probably supported only in the initial versions). But for those who tuned in late (i.e. didnt read _all_ the boring messages in this thread), my question was with respect to beagle-0.3.7 on mono-1.9+ which is the latest available and should be on OpenSUSE-11.0 - dBera -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
D Bera,
I just killed on 11.0. Really... I have serious problems with mono,
and I feel so better without.
But you know... in 10.2,10.3 the problem persists. Give me a real nice
motivation to use in openSUSE 11.0
Cheers,

I feel out of place in this mailing list :P. I am not advocating beagle or any other software. If you don't need it or feel the trouble is not worth the benefits, I totally agree on nuking the annoyance. What I am looking for are concrete feedback (+ some helpful details). There are very few bugs (if at all) about CPU problems for OpenSUSE 11.0 or beagle-0.3.7. Some detail is needed to fix this problem. Since a lot of people in this list seems to have tried and faced the problem, I figured out this is the best place to get some more information. Send me a private email if you have some information to share and are willing to help. Recent versions ship with enough tools and tricks that the exact problem can be identified.

Sort of typical of the whole beagle project. Pushes its way into the distro just to find a use for Mono, then, when resistance is met they makes it harder to turn off. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Interesting interpretation. I wonder what the other "typical" characteristics are :) ~/.dontrunbeagle sounds like a bad hack to me. I believe using freedesktop autostart .desktop files are currently the recommended way to enable/disable auto-starting of beagle (or any other application). And last I checked, beagle uses autostart .desktop files to let users disable it. -- ----------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dtecht.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Then you should ask on the factory list, explaining the problem you see. There was also a long thread not many months ago about beagle, and some of the emails pointed at precise instructions about how and where to report beagle problems so that its developpers can correct it. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

You dont' have to turn it off if you taboo it during the install. Then you just don't even have to worry about it. I'm not wasting the P3/500 and 384MB RAM in my Thinkpad for something like beagle. Or openoffice, or gimp, or all the other things that I don't need or could care less about. That's why there is a choice available during the install people......Those who want it can use it to the hearts delight. Those of us who don't just don't worry with it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
