Title: 1.0.9 seems to be too much CPU consuming
Post by: jimi on October 20, 2003, 02:09:19 PM

Hi,

I've upgraded from 1.0.7 to 1.0.9 on friday, and during the weekend I've noticed that version 1.0.9 is consuming too much cpu (I'm sure 1.0.7 was not).

See below statistics from a 'top' command and notice almost 100% CPU beeing used by amule (actually ranges from 85 - 97%).

2464 jimi     25   0 40728  39m 6076 R 96.4 10.6   1047:13 amule
 2126 root      15   0 59372  25m 1512 S  2.0  6.8  10:03.81 X
 5934 jimi     15   0   896  896  696 R  1.0  0.2   0:00.26 top
 2305 jimi     15   0 23712  23m 3180 S  0.7  6.2   0:17.31 gnome-termin

Is it supposed to be like this? What am I doing wrong?

My machine spec is not the best, neither the worst one (a medium level, I suppose, Athlon T-Bird 900MHz with 384Mb PC133), and it was running fine on previous version I tested. Should I downgrade version and check if the problem is solved?

Thanks a lot for your support ;-)

Hi ilmalcom,

Thanks for your answer, but I still have the problem and your input did not suggest too much on that, only that the problem may be in MY client (or machine settings)   :cry:  Should I upgrade to athlon 2000?

What may be my problem? Any suggestion? Is it related to the number of shared files? (but I have the same number of files since 1.0.7 and it did not use too much CPU). Or maybe the connection setings ?

Somebody help me  :roll:

I know xMule had problems with SuSE. Do you use that?

Hmmm, i use SuSE 8.2 and i had no probs with xMule.

Compile your wxLIB yourself and everything is fine!

And i had no probs with aMule (and SuSE)!

aMule is great! :)

Hi delta,

I'm running Suse Linux 8.2 on an AMD (athlon T-Bird) CPU. As I said before, I didn'nt have this kind of problem with the previous version I tried (which was 1.0.7), but...

I'll be setting stats update prefs and see if it gets better. Any news, I'll post here ;-)

Thanks a lot for your support!
Greetings from Rio!

Compile wxgtk against gtk1 and not gtk2.
