Child Panels Consume Mucho Cycles
I am attaching a screenshot of KDE System Guard's process monitor.
GKrellm had been reporting that about 60% of my CPU was being utilized, even
when top would report no programs running. I thought.
I had a child panel with some menus and News Ticker running. I finally had
the idea of removing my child panel -- where the drop-off occurs in the graph
is when I removed the panel and the excess CPUsage dropped markedly.
Perhaps I had the wrong configuration. Should News Ticker alone consume so
much CPU or was it the child panel or some conjunction of the two?
