Attaching a file of memory allocations tells us nothing about the CPU load. If you want to reopen this bug, I need: - the name of the process that's using a lot of CPU. - Was something meant to be showing an uncrawled folder? If so, what part makes a bug. - Ideally, a callgrind log. - The name of the process causing the high CPU load is thumbnail.so according to htop and ksysguard. - The process is started every time I browse a folder with Dolphin and switch on the preview. thumbnail.so will then use 100% of one CPU core until I kill it, even if this folder has only three PDFs or two videos in it and those are shown after a split of a second. - Sorry, but what is a callgrind log, and where do I find thumbnail.so's one? Htops infos: https://goo.gl/photos/ZaQrtizfXu9rkqJH6 I confirm this bug. This happened to me when Dolphin had a folder open where there is a file that's being modified continuously, in my case I was downloading a file using aria2c. There is a reddit thread about it from about a year ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/a56xwb/thumbnailso_100_cpu_after_upgrade_in_debian/ This bug is still relevant! Manifests itself, when Dolphin had a folder open where there is a file that's being modified continuously. Can confirm on OpenSuse Tumbleweed. Trying to generate thumbnails on a read-only drive. |
