Hi,

I was wondering why my CPU usage was so high (between 20% - 40%) with just the system monitoring tool open thus i used top to monitor my system.

When using top i use a few CPU usage percentages at most.
When using ksysguard i'm burning through my CPU with between 20% - 40% usage

So something is obviously wrong here. If you want me to run any commands/tests to trace this issue please tell me (including how).

Regards,
Mark

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Start ksysguard and watch your CPU resources

Actual Results:  
CPU usage is roughly 20% - 40%.. mostly for X but caused by ksysguard (my guess).

Expected Results:  
Just a few percentages at most.

Cannot reproduce with KSysguard 5.12.1 on KDE 5.12.2. Probably fixed, unless @Mark can still reproduce this bug.

Ohh, that's an old one!
Nope, i haven't seen this since anymore.
