Hi, banshee wakes up the CPU too often while doing nothing. It's approximately 20 times/second. > 3,0% ( 10,3) banshee : schedule_timeout (process_timeout) > 2,9% ( 10,0) banshee : futex_wait (hrtimer_wakeup) Bye Debian Bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=437810
Still a problem in trunk according to powertop.
Seems to be fixed in banshee 1.5.1
I can confirm that Banshee no longer figures on the list of top offenders.
