Description Mikolaj Machowski 2007-10-10 23:06:39 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

Very intense usage of kio_http_cache_cleaner is blocking whole computer - not only Konqueror for several seconds. Each hour it is triggered by some event and makes every application unusable by completely taking over of hard disk.

At least start it with lowest priority, please.

I'm seeing exactly the same behavior in Debian GNU/Linux (sid):

Konqueror
Version 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4)
Using KDE 4.2.4 (KDE 4.2.4)


running iotop shows kio_http_cache_cleaner performing 99% of the total I/O activity.

i can confirm this with 4.3 RC2 on kubuntu jaunty.
it's really annoying since it makes the system incredibly slow.

Fixed in trunk. Cleanup only happens when the cache size has actually increased, and when it happens it's less intrusive.
