Dhcpcd consumes a lot of CPU when wireless switch is off

If I turn my hardware wireless switch off, dhcpcd goes crazy and uses a CPU core completely. Checking with htop, the command being run is:
dhcpcd -4qL -t 30 wlp13s0
where wlp13s0 is my wireless interface. I'm using netctl-auto to connect to the network.
It goes back to normal as soon as I turn the switch back on.
The network configuration under /etc/netctl to which it was connected before I turned the switch off is
Description='Automatically generated profile by wifi-menu'
Interface=wlp13s0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa
ESSID="network"
IP=dhcp
Key="password"
Is there anything I can do so that dhcpcd won't try to use all my CPU in such cases?
EDIT (2014.05.28):
I looked in the following wiki pages, but couldn't find anything about this issue:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … leshooting
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dhcpcd
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … figuration
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Netctl
I couldn't find anything about dhcpcd and cpu usage in the forums, and searching the web didn't provide any relevant results. Which is bad, since anatolik found this:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39512
which I didn't.

If I turn the switch on after turning it off, I must connect manually using netctl (that is, netctl-auto doesn't connect automatically in this case). After doing that, turning the switch back off does not cause the problem. Which is weird, since the process is still there, like before
I also noticed that it is no longer possible to use netctl-auto after turning the switch off, as it no longer see any configuration (running `netctl-auto list` as root returns nothing, while before it returned 2 items).
ondoho wrote:how did you install and activate wireless
I basically followed this wiki page:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … f_profiles
I first generated the profiles with wifi-menu and by copying /etc/netctl/examples/ethernet-dhcp, and then activated netctl-auto using
# systemctl enable [email protected]
# systemctl enable [email protected]

Yes, it looks very similar.  It is said there that the problem should be fixed since 2014-04-01 11:48:57, but I just checked for updates with pacman and I already have the most recent version (6.3.2).  I will see if I can add any relevant information to that page.
I did notice that my wireless interface disappears when I turn the switch off (ifconfig doesn't show it anymore), and it only reappears when I reconnect manually. I'm not sure if that is expected, since the commit that should have solved the problem says:
On a read error, remove the FD from eloop. This shouldn't happen really

  • EA1 - consumes a lot of CPU

    New 2.1.0.62 EA1 consumes a lot of CPU on my Macbook with MacOS 10.6.1.
    After I have opened two database connections (Oracle) everything seems to be fine (CPU usage 2% and below), but after I have executed some sql statements I will never get below 7% of CPU usage. It gets even worse the longer you work with SQL Developer (> 25 %).
    The statements I have executed did not have many rows (< 100) and do not take long (< 1 s).

    Hi Barry,
    sorry haven't seen that you have edited this thread. Yes, for me it is still the case. I just updated to 2.1 final release and am testing. I am using SQL developer for 40 minutes now and it is consuming 24-25% of the CPU(s). ... after 2 hours of work it is at 35-36%.
    Is there any tool that I can use to track this issue down or any information that I can send you? The suggested "topthreads" does not work here :-(

    Not enough free storage space can slow your Mac down. Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage. Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
    Anti virus software, as well as third party Mac cleaning utilities such as MacKeeper  and CleanMyMac can also slow your Mac down.
    Check to see if the startup disk needs repairing.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    Make sure to back up all important data first before using OS X Recovery.

  • Dwm.exe starts consuming lots of CPU when machine is idle

    Since doing a fresh install of Windows 8 Pro RTM x64 English on my Sony Vaio Z21 laptop, I've been bothered by a sudden increase in fan noise whenever I leave the machine idle for a while and the displays are turned off. Finally decided to try and get to
    the bottom of it today, so I ran the Performance Recorder with the CPU usage profile enabled and brought up the relevant graphs in Performance Analyzer. See the below screen shot for the results.
    I started the trace and then left the machine alone for a while to trigger the idle behavior. It's pretty clear that Dwm.exe is the main culprit. As to why this process would find anything useful to do when all the displays are turned off is beyond me. Also
    Outlook.exe sees a significant increase of CPU usage during the same time period. Whether these two are somehow related, I have no clue. Please note that I've disabled all other processes in the graph for clarity; no other processes showed any visible increase
    during the trace.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Daniel Stolt, Perceptible, http://www.perceptible.net

    I'm seeing similar characteristics as some others in this thread:
    - The issue occurs when the system is idle AND the power management puts my displays on standby.
    - Modifying my power management settings so that the display is NEVER put on standby causes the issue to go away.  (The system will not show unusual CPU activity even after sitting idle for some time.)
    - When the issue occurs, dwm.exe shows some CPU activity.  dwm.exe's activity averages around 25%.  Several other applications show CPU activity as well.  Each individual application's activity averages less than 25% (so dwm.exe's activity
    is the most visible during this issue), but the total CPU activity adds up to around 60-75%.  The unusual CPU activity ceases when the monitor wakes up from standby.
    Do others participating in this thread observe that the issue goes away if they modify their power management settings so that their monitor is never allowed to go to standby?  I understand that this isn't a viable "solution" for most people,
    but I'd like to know if everyone else shares that same observation.
    I have a question (and appreciation!) for the persons genuinely contributing to this thread:  Do you see any unusual CPU activity occur in any other applications when this issue occurs?  For example, do you see a small amount of activity in explorer.exe?
    I ask this because I've watched the CPU graphs for several individual processes which happen to be running on my system.  (I've been leaving several process property windows open in Process Explorer to monitor individual process performance.  It's
    a kludgy method but it works.)  Processes such as skype.exe, steam.exe, procmon.exe (Process Monitor), and taskmgr.exe each nibble at the CPU when the problem occurs.  The effect is subtle but noticeable.  The CPU nibbling for these applications
    disappears when the monitor wakes-up from standby.
    I've also noticed that there is slightly less overall CPU consumption if all application windows are minimized when the issue occurs.  In the case of steam.exe, the unusual CPU consumption all but disappears when it is minimized.
    I believe Harri Kaimio's post has been the closest thing I've seen posted to a technical explanation for the issue.  It seems (?) that certain applications are attempting to draw something, but they are somehow blocked or otherwise unable to do so when
    the monitor is on standby.  dwm.exe plays a part in drawing, so it shows activity when this occurs.  However, instead of giving up, the applications seem to go nuts and attempt the (same?) thing frequently, thereby generating CPU activity.*
    *Please understand that these are guesses -- if someone can correct me with more technical details or procedures which would help disprove my guesses, please do show me where these guesses are wrong!  I'd love to work towards a solid explanation.
    A few more tidbits:
    - I do not run Logitech's SetPoint.exe.
    - I'm experiencing this on a desktop system.  My display adapters are:  AMD/Radeon HD 7800 series, and the integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000.
    - Running Windows 7.
    - I am incredibly pleased that not a single person has suggested "defragmenting" in this entire thread.  :)

  • Swing consumes a lot of cpu?

    I developed model server-client application. Up to 100 or more clients can manipulate small random access file simultaneously locally or remotely. When I run the program in testing mode without gui, with a lot of logging to many files and to standard output too, with a lot of threads madly trying to corrupt my file, I can hardly see task manager reacting. When I test my application with gui (server has small console) and client has rather complicated ui, even if i do not do anything, task manager shows cpu usage 98%. If i am doing something and gui must repaint (very little), it's painfull to watch. The frame or/and its children are repainting in patches intersecting each other and cpu usage is just hovering. What does it do? I have xp pro, powerful comp. and a lot of memory. I have to work in jdk 1.3 at this moment.
    What I supposed to do? Why does it stink so badly?
    Will be glad to any hints.

    Thank you. SwingWorker is my long time favorite. I am using it since its first release. I also would recommend it to anybody.
    I ran a profile on the program with -Xprof flag.

  • Kernel_task consumes a lot of CPU

    Hello!
    I have MacBook Pro 5,5 with Mac OS 10.6.8.
    It always slows down during charging and periodically when it works on a battery.
    I have analyzed threads with Shark and it shows that AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement::~AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement eats ~80% of CPU (total 200%).
    When I took system to sleep mode then waked it up, all works fine for some time (10-20 seconds), but then it again slows down.
    Resetting SCM doesn't help.
    How could I solve this problem?

    Fixing kernel_task overloding your computer!!!
    Use this at your own risk. It worked for me.
    Basic Procedure:
    1- Click in the apple logo on the upleft corner, select "About This Mac".
    2- Click in "More Info".
    3- Click in "System Report".
    4- Take note of "Model Identifier".
    5- Create a new folder called "Recovery_Kernel_Task".
    6- Select Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions/IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext
    7- Click the mouse right button at that file and select "Show Package Contents"
    8- Open the folder Contents/Resources.
    9- Look for the Model Identifier in step 4.
    10- Move the file to the folder you've created, if you need to restore the file.
    11- Check the folder in step 8 has 49 files instead of 50 (original files).
    12- Restart the computer and be happy!

  • Firefox 3.6.12 is using lots of CPU when shutting down, and doesn't ever die

    It may have something to do with changing settings, but on the closing phase of restarting Firefox 3.6.12, one of my two CPUs get's used, CPU running at about 50% to 60%. It doesn't seem to stop until I kill it from task manager. I haven't been able to wait more than 10 minutes for it.

    @cor-el
    Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding. As i understood now it is in fact only a "DOM storage data" topic.
    Quote from betterprivacy:
    ''"Disabling DOM storage (instead of deleting the file on shutdown) causes a website script to throw an exception. This means that the execution of the script is aborted immediately, not just the DOM storage instruction is ignored. None of the following script instructions would be executed, even if those instructions have nothing to do with DOM storage. That is the reason why -with DOM storage disabled- sites like CNN.com will cease to play videos."''

  • Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources after some time

    Hi,
    I've upgraded from Firefox 3.5.16 to Firefox 5.0 on Linux i386 with 512 MB RAM. Everything is working fine until after "some time" (don't know the exact time period) the CPU load increases to 100%, my average system load explodes and the system is swapping memory wildly. This suddenly happens, even if Firefox is in the background while I'm working on different things. So it does not belong to any memory-hungry stuff like Flash pages or JavaScript sites.
    I don't think the problem is caused by my extensions (adblock, noscript, multifox, tabloc) or plugins (mplayer/Flash) either.
    I think it is the Javascript Garbage Collector. I could tweak its cycle time in about:config, but this would just be work around the problem.
    Note that I usually have many open (app) tabs that extensively use Javascript and AJAX.
    I really like the new Firefox features, but I haven't expected that "5.0" stands for 5.0 average system load. Sorry couldn't resist that remark ;D
    bcctr

    I updated to Firefox Aurora this morning. Problems seem to be solved. Thank you!

  • Need an app/lib that consume a lot of CPU

    Currently designing a light java middleware to work on clusters and grids, I need a java application to load the CPU usage of the computers. Is there something available somewhere ?
    Thanks.

    Why does it have to be "something more interesting" if the only goal is to produce CPU load??

  • Wireless Router WRT160N wired to desktop, I loose internet when wireless laptop is off.

    I have the wrt160n v2 wireless router, it does not work for me.
    If my XP wireless laptop is only powered ON the Vista desktop internet wired will work, I am not wired or wireless using the laptop, not in internet, only powered on.
    If the laptop is off I have no internet on the desktop, still plugged thru the router.
    The laptop is used and I was unsure if the built in wireless was new enough so I bought a card to go in it for wireless.
    When everything is on all is well for playing on the internet times two computers, but if you turn off the laptop I have to plug the internet directly into the desktop to continue in the internet.
    I started to work with tech support yesterday and they are hard to understand. I did bring in the newest firmware and still have the problems.
    Can anybody help me, I really don't have the time to be on the phone for hours figuring this all out.
    Thanks

    And I wish everyone that was having this problem with 160Nv2 firmware could get some kind of compensation from Linksys, but again, unfortunately, I have no control over that, not being a Linksys employee...I had a Cisco CCNA once, but it expired.....and that is as close as I will ever probably come....
