I've just updated my aMule with the SuSe rpm (I've got mdk 9.2) but now when aMule is run, my pc gets sooo slow
I went back and set up again aMule 1.2.1 and it works fine now  :]
for example with aMule 1.2.1 running I can listen to music without 'blanks' in the music, but with 1.2.4 it's _impossible_  

any idea ?

[Trepalium]

I don't know.  I got so tired of aMule taking all my CPU time, I started running it in an Xnest server instead.  Instead of causing my X server to pause all the time and become unresponsive, it consumes a steady 10-20% of the CPU time, and doesn't prevent me from listening to music or watching video.

aWM, wxGTK linked against gtk1 or gtk2 ?

[aWM]

hmmm I dunno...
How could I know ?

ls -lisa `which wx-config`

or

wx-config --basename

[aWM]

here's what I get :

Code: [Select]

$ which wx-config
/usr/bin/wx-config
$ wx-config --basename
wx_base

[deltaHF]

deltaHF@deltahf:~/file/amule-cvs> wx-config --basename
wx_gtk
deltaHF@deltahf:~/file/amule-cvs> ls -l /usr/bin/wx*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         4864 2003-11-28 13:08 /usr/bin/wxbase-2.4-config

I did what is told in the how-to, its oke now - but cpu-use still is something like 80-90%, on an 1000 mhz AMD Athlon.

you said something, on another forum, about bad performance of AMD? what about it, and why, is it a WX-windows issue???

[deltaHF]

u should recompile / reinstall amule too

[loerkr]

Hi folks !

CPU-cycle consumption stops when /Preferences/Tweaks/Verbose is switched off. Try it

CU

[aWM]

hmm...interesting
I'm gonna try this next time I boot under linux
thanx

Hi,

I am running the debian unstable version of amule. You suggestion of having verbose mode switched off doesn't solve the problem for me as verbose mode was deactivated. My machine is still running at a cpu nearly 100%.

Best,

aldivmv

[deltaHF]

hi, we release tomorrow 1.2.5 .. a lot of changes  

[demiurg]

I can confirm this. "Verbose" is definately a cpu hog.

[Kry]

And mem hog, because the log has no limit.
