[Bug 255635] New: System slow while typing an e-mail in KMail
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=255635 Summary: System slow while typing an e-mail in KMail Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: uli.2001@gmx.de QAContact: qa@suse.de I am using KDE 3.5.6 on my Thinkpad T60 2007-FUG, with a fresh installation a few days ago. When I type an e-mail in KMail, after a while (maybe after a minute, having written 10 or 20 lines, KMail is very slow: the letters appear much slower than I type). Using "top", I can see that the Xorg process uses 100% CPU (1 of 2 Core2Duo CPUs). This happened several times during the last days. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Then I start writing an email, and suddenly in the middle, the typing slows down, and the Xorg CPU usage goes to 100%. No reason for this is obvious to me. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

On a hunch: It could be something to do with font rendering. What happens if you change the font used for composing a mail in kmail?

From the description it could be some busy waiting somewhere in the driver. This is however hard to say from here.
