I'm currently running 3.19.1-1-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT on a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz With 13.1/64-bit IO scheduler if cfq The last few kernel revisions seem to have affected latency in certain areas. This is most obvious in hot keying from the GUI screen on vt7 to a plain text mode login on vt1. I should be almost instantaneous. I was in past months. Its now taking 3-4 seconds. That really really noticeable. I have monitors for CPU and network and disk activity, and I've tried this when all of them are low. I've tried this with each CPU activity showing ... Again low, single digits or idle cores. Within the KDE desktop, switching between desktops is fast, moving though FF tabs is fast, moving though the (presumably cached) messages and folders in T'Bird is fast. Perhaps I shouldn't complain. But it strikes me as odd. I'm wondering if this is related to the ssh...Login/logind issue in another thread. However the latency is there even if I'm switching to vt1 and have a already logged in there or swiching back to the X/KDE on vt7. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
