Description Christian 2009-04-29 10:06:54 UTC

Version:           kget released with kde 4.2.2 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unspecified Linux

When I start a download, usually a torrent, a notification popup is open, and when I try to close it a notification icons still remain in the taskbar, no way to remove it!
The problem raises when I leave KGet downloading: a notification appears and remains always visibible, and plasma reach a 30-40% cpu consume on my Intel Core Duo 1,6ghz.
I can't apologize a so high cpu level for a so simple notification popup. Is this a plasma bug?

Is it "knotify" also involved in the CPU usage thing ?
Thanks

Comment 2 Christian 2009-04-29 19:10:15 UTC

no, only plasma seems affected: at download finished KGet runs at 10-20% cpu (only seeding), the notification popup is on the top and plasma process runs at 40-70%

when I close the popup, plasma runs at normal 0-5%, kget cpu still stay around 15-20%

when I close kget, everything runs normal

I can confirm the permanent kget notification on both Gentoo and Debian unstable, with KDE-4.2.4 and kget-2.2.4. The notification always appears when kget is started, whether or not anything is being downloaded. Also, the only way to get rid of the notification is to close kget.

However CPU utilisation looks normal to me.

This is the KUiServer-Notification I guess, so it's a feature. Just turn off the option in the settings!
About CPU-Load: I have no clue what can cause this at the moment, seems like Plasma stuff to me atm...
