[Bug 231258] New: ZMD sucks the cpu power at boot-up and during refresh
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=231258 Summary: ZMD sucks the cpu power at boot-up and during refresh Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Zenworks AssignedTo: zlm-code10-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: f.alabas@ttnet.net.tr QAContact: sarifulla@novell.com CC: ammiller@novell.com, kkaempf@novell.com, visnov@novell.com BugsThisDependsOn: 230673 +++ This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #230673 +++ After a normal boot or when refreshing, zmd tries to find the services and refreshes the files, that's ok. But, during these operation zmd eats all the CPU power of my machine and almost does not let another application work. So, trying to do some work during the zmd starting/refreshing is fooling. My 1.8 GHz Turion 64 with 1 GByte RAM and 128 MByte ATI collapses. -- 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.

The update_status process uses 100% of the CPU for a long time immediately after boot and while refreshing sources. -- 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.

At each boot zmd's update-status goes crazy and uses the whole CPU for a lot of time (while it doesn't on SLED!) and it's unacceptable especially on mobile systems! -- 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.

My 2.7GHz Athlon64 often takes many minutes to do the update operation. I have seen zen take over 20 minutes, especially when additional repositories are added such as the KDE3, KDE community, KDE backports and others. It is really annoying how slow zen is, even on fast hardware. On slower hardware it is unbearable. Something is fundamentally wrong given the fact how slow it is. -- 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.

Well to summarize the bug # 219402 .... zmd uses some helpers called parse-metadata and update-status which take lots of cpu during initialization. So as part of the fix we just re-nice these helpers so that it runs with low priority. But unfortunately Zenworks is no more part of OpenSuSE .... But it is still part of SuSE Linux Enterprise(SLE) 10 and the fix will be available only to SLE 10 customers. -- 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.
