Description Hussam 2009-04-11 01:26:30 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I have Kopete 0.70.2 with KDE 4.2.2 "release 111" running on openSuSE 11.1.
When i close Kopete (right click on tray icon and click on Quit) it starts using a large amount of memory (100% of one of my cores) and consumes a lot of memory. The actual kopete process does not get killed until 15 seconds later during that time the CPU utilization remains extremely high with large memory consumption. I noticed that doing a "top" during that time shows that the CPU is spending a huge amount of time in waiting "%wa".

How to reproduce:
-Start kopete
-Right click on tray icon and click on "Quit"

Thanks,

I think this may have to do with particular protocols you are logged into cleaning up before terminating.

Which protocols are you using?

Comment 2 Hussam 2009-04-12 17:13:46 UTC

I am using 1 Yahoo, 2 Hotmail, 1 AIM, and 1 Google Talk.
I've been using these protocols with Kopete for a while but i haven't encountered this particular problem until recently, and it happens consistently.

I am having a similar issue. Setting the status to "Offline" or quitting, it starts to use ~15% (process keeps being there) as well as dbus-daemon. When I kill kopete dbus-daemon begins to use the "complete" ~30% cpu.

Are you using the Lancelot menu ? If you are, then this is a duplicate of bug
196809. Thanks

At least for me it was the Lancelot problem. Does not happen anymore.

Comment 6 Matt Rogers 2009-09-06 05:20:15 UTC

Seems to be a lancelot problem, not a kopete problem. Closing.
