Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: Linux More details here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/akonadi/+bug/909022 On every KDE session startup, a bunch of akonadi-related processes are started. These start hogging the system CPU and RAM shortly after startup, and quickly tie up 100% CPU and 200% RAM (i.e. they use up almost 8G physical RAM and start chewing on swap as well!) In order not to have my 2-core 8G RAM machine completely bogged down by these processes, I have to kill the processes manually, else my session becomes unusable and I have to reset the machine. Ubuntu: up-to-date 11.10 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Log into a KDE session. Actual Results: akonadi ties up all system resources up. Expected Results: akonadi should not hog CPU nor RAM.
paste the output of 'akonadictl --version' please
$ akonadictl --version Akonadi 1.6.2
I just updated to fedora kernel 3.1.9-1.fc16.x86_64, rebooted and found akonadiserver, mysql, akonadi_maildispatcher_agent using all of the cpu. Even killing them didn't help - they restarted automatically. I finally did mv /usr/bin/akonadiserver /usr/bin/akonadiserverxxx and then killed it. Now what? $ akonadictl --version Akonadi 1.6.2 Why do I want to run any of this stuff anyway? How can I permanently disable it (even better uninstall) in fedora 16?
Still present in KDE/akonadi 4.13.2.
same here on Akonadi 1.13.0
This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
