Version: 1.2 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Akregator has insane resource usage. I entered one feed, and Akregator is now using anything between 20-70% of my CPU!! This is really unacceptable, and I'm going to have to uninstall it. The feed is: http://www.craigslist.org/cgi-bin/search?areaID=1&subAreaID=&query=trampoline&catAbbreviation=sss When I disabled archiving, there was no effect. The process using all of the resources is kfmclient.
Is it reproducible? Does it happen only with the feed above, or with any other feed, too? When does the CPU usage go up? Just after adding it to the feed list? Or when updating it? How many feeds do you have in your feed list? > The process using all of the resources is kfmclient. kfmclient? Are you sure it's caused by Akregator?
I've been trying all week to reproduce it, and finally did, but only by accident. I deleted all articles from the feed, and about 15 minutes later the resource crazy kfmclients were causing serious sluggishness to my system. This definitely has *something* to do with akregator, as the urls that kfmclient was attempting to get were items from the feed, which only akregator knows about. However, according to htop, the kfmclient processes *were not* child processes of akregator, which makes me think there's some funkiness going on behind the scenes. I use firefox as my main browser, but did not set up akregator to use firefox internally.
Couldn't reproduce that with Akregator 1.3.3
Closing as it's not reproducible for me either.
