Description Lee Aidos 2008-12-20 01:44:28 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

After a few minutes of normal use, the machine slows to a crawl. A top -u user reveals that there are several dozen kio_http processes. Programs in use are usually KTorrent, Arora, Yakuake, KNetworkManager, and three KDE twitter plasmoids.

A killall -9 kio_http alleviates the problem for a few minutes.

Running openSUSE 11.1 using the trunk snapshot packages.

I'm not running Konqueror. Isn't that the crux of bug 162612?

Comment 3 Lee Aidos 2009-01-07 04:12:23 UTC

Don't know how helpful this is, but the problem is also occurring on openSUSE 11.0 using the trunk packages.

Comment 4 Lee Aidos 2009-01-15 20:20:04 UTC

Fixed now. Closing.
