My system generates a 30% load by X, using approximately 50% of the CPU altogether (I have lots of other programs running). I'm using Konqueror from CVS HEAD, along with XFree86 4.3.0, anti-aliased fonts. It's an Athlon 1.4 GHz. Using Konqueror from KDE 3.1.3, Xfree 4.3.0, playing with selection makes XFree to take 70-80% of the CPU, kdeinit taking between 15 and 20%. The figures are similars on an Athlon 850 and a P4 1GHz. Fonts are anti-aliased. I can confirm the raised load, but I don't consider it really important. After all it doesn't take away functionality *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 55941 *** #55941 is reported as fixed in 3.2.1, but I can still reproduce this. I can confirm on 3.5.2 on amd64 3200+ that holding down mouse button and moving it around on slashdot as described above, I was able to get X to a maximum of 80% CPU usage and konqueror to a maximum of 22%, obviously not simultaneously. No loss in responsiveness or lag or anything bad apart from the high load statistic is experienced. RESOLVED NOTAREALPROBLEM On Sunday 27 August 2006 02:55, Lubos Lunak wrote:

It really is a problem and it's not minor. You won't believe how irritating
it is not being able to select text. But I did see a commit regarding that
at some point in the 3.5 branch so will test that and see.
"When selecting text in the Konqueror web browser, XFree86 can use a large amount of CPU time." - the bugreport is not about being able to select text, the bugreport is about it needing some CPU activity, which is to be expected. |
