PubSubAgent consuming CPU Power

I have a PowerBook G4 1,33 with 1 GB Ram.
In Mail I subscribed to nearly 80 feeds. I was wondering, why the computer slows down and looked at the running tasks,
I discoverd "PubSubAgent", that is started together with Mail, consuming 90% CPU power.
Can someone tell me, what is wrong? Are 80 subscriptions too much?

It would really help to know more about the computer other than a generic G4 which covers a lot of models. Processor(s), speed, RAM, etc.? It would also help to know what you are doing, what software you are using, when this message comes up.
I see one other reference to this message on the net, with reference to using ProTools. If you have an old computer and are trying to do high powered processing (e.g. on the fly compression) it is possible the software you are using is saying there's not enough processing power available for the software to work at full or required speed. Try closing other applications while you are working with your software.

[SOLVED] Amarok consumes CPU power

Hey Folks,
I'm using Amarok 2.5 and KDE 4.8.
I've noticed, that amarok eats about 10 to 20% CPU power, when playing a song
or pause it. When i stop playing, the cpu usage falls to a minimum.
I've tried the gstreamer and the vlc backend, but neither of them helped.
Referring to this post switching to
xine backend could help to fix this problem. But it looks like it isn't supported by kde anymore.
Edit:
"CMake Error at xine/CMakeLists.txt:45 (message):
xine-lib v1.2.1 was found on your system. This version contains major
changes compared to 1.1.x and has not been tested properly for use with
this backend. Consider downgrading to version
1.1.9.http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=9655&package_id=9732"
This is the output if i try the aur package

Up/downsampling? See this for example: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=94421
PS and yeah, Amarok is bloated as hell

Opening VI and consuming 100% CPU power

I am trying to debug my VI. The first few times the VI ran well but suddenly the VI hang up. I have no choice but to end the LabView process using the Task Manager. When I try to restart this VI again, it fails to open and the Task Manager indicates that the LabView program is now consuming 100% of the CPU time but still fail to open this VI. Looks like it is entering into an infinite loop. I cannot fix anything for I cannot go into my VI to change anything. LabView just consumes all the CPU power and do nothing. What went wrong?
Regards,
Larry

Okay. That is very strange. I am seeing the same behavior. (I have LV 8.2)
When I first downloaded the VI, it opened just fine. If I did a saveas, closed the VI, and reopened the copy, I got 99% CPU usage. I reopened the one from the message, no problem. I left that one open and tried opening the one I had saved. It said I already had one in memory by that name do I want to view the one in memory or replace? I said replace. When it opened to the block diagram, everything was okay. But when I clicked on the window to view the front panel, that is when the CPU usage jumped up again.
So somehow the problem is associated with the FP. Nothing looks particular wrong about your code. The question is how did you manage to get a copy of the file that isn't causing problems when you open it?
I think you will want to recreate the VI from scratch. You are able to view a copy to see whay you have which is good. And it doesn't look too complicated.
What is interesting is that if I delete everything from the VI's block diagram (leaving nothing apparent on the FP), save, close, reopen, I still get the extreme CPU Usage. It seems confined to LV, as I am still able to switch over and working within the browser to answer this message.

Intel i7-4800MQ CPU Power Consuming is much higher than Windows

On Windows 8.1, I run CPU-Z to generate these information:
Processor 1 ID = 0
Number of cores 4 (max 8)
Number of threads 8 (max 16)
Name Intel Core i7 4800MQ
Codename Haswell
Specification Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4800MQ CPU @ 2.70GHz
Package (platform ID) Socket 947 rPGA (0x4)
Core Stepping C0
Technology 22 nm
TDP Limit 47 Watts
***Core Speed 799.0 MHz***
Multiplier x Bus Speed 8.0 x 99.9 MHz
Stock frequency 2700 MHz
Instructions sets MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, EM64T, VT-x, AES, AVX, AVX2, FMA3
Turbo Mode supported, enabled
Max non-turbo ratio 27x
Max turbo ratio 37x
Max efficiency ratio 8x
You see: This CPU can run at 800MHz(Core Voltage 0.6 v) on windows, when there is no CPU toast Task. The fan is quiet.
===========================================================
But on Arch Linux, I run the latest i7z-git, I got these information:
Cpu speed from cpuinfo 2693.00Mhz
cpuinfo might be wrong if cpufreq is enabled. To guess correctly try estimating via tsc
Linux's inbuilt cpu_khz code emulated now
True Frequency (without accounting Turbo) 2693 MHz
CPU Multiplier 27x || Bus clock frequency (BCLK) 99.74 MHz

TURBO ENABLED on 4 Cores, Hyper Threading ON
Max Frequency without considering Turbo 2792.74 MHz (99.74 x [28])
Max TURBO Multiplier (if Enabled) with 1/2/3/4 Cores is 37x/36x/35x/35x
Real Current Frequency 2653.53 MHz [99.74 x 26.60] (Max of below)

Core 4 [3]: 2631.18 (26.38x) 2.29 20.4 1.44 1 74.9 39 0.89
CPU can only run at 2.7Ghz (or higher in turbo model), and Core Voltage is 0.89 v. Tha fan is very noisy.
I try many method in CPU power saving, but can not find the solution. Is there any diffierent in power management between Linux and windows?

How exactly? That was my question. Just the voltage report? Or do you actually notice something is not right, like shorter battery life? Different tools could possibly measure things differently. Try turbostat, it's in AUR.
Fan management can also be unrelated to actual power consumption. I've wondered before whether pstate, because it works differently, is confusing whatever is responsible for controlling the fans. What brand of laptop do you have? Post the output of lsmod.
And again, just because a tool says the frequency is at 2700MHz, does not mean the processor is actually at that frequency! It is not most of the time.
Thank you for your help.
I am using dell M4800 laptop which have a 97Wh battery. Mainly browing web page and typing some documents. In windows, its battery can last for 5 hours. In linux, it can only last 3 hours.
I am also trying to find more evidence to compare the power consuming between these two platforms. I understand your meaning. It is hard to fairly compare these two environment. I am strill trying to find more information.

Not enough CPU power

Lately, my Mac has randomly been crashing. So, the first solution I tried so far, is to replace the RAM. So, I had upgraded to 16GB instead of the default 4GB, but if I still run an application (mainly videos, or a game), the CPU being consumed by the user will go up to 50% I'm not exactly sure if this normal. I had opened all the applications in the Adobe Master Collection CS5, and the CPU being consumed by the user went up to around 40%-55% and I thought this was fair, but watching a 420p video on YouTube (I'm using Google Chrome) goes ridiculously high just for a 420 pixel video, it takes up 40% to 60%
If this is normal, even with 16GB of RAM installed, how can I increase my CPU power? Also, if I keep my CPU usage under 90% then my Mac doesn't crash.

The only way to get a more powerful CPU is to sell your computer and buy a faster one. CPU power is not related to how much RAM is installed.
If what you described is correct then you might start with:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

Java threads consume CPU in sleep state (??)

Hi,
I'm using the PRSTAT command on Solaris for the first time.
I am investigating high CPU usage problem in my application. So to monitor the CPU usage I used the prstat and mpstat command. My machine is a 2-CPU box.
The prstat -L -p <pid> command output is as follows:
PID     UNAME ... .... STATE           CPU      PROCESS / LWPID

2962   bea                   run           0.0%           java / 17
..... This shows that of all the threads in my app only one thread(23) is currently on the CPU and is using 5.2% of CPU. But why are the threads in sleep and runnable state consuming CPU?
Also the mpstat output shows high CPU usage:
CPU minf mjf xcal intr ithr csw icsw migr smtx srw syscl usr sys wt idl
0   8   0 366 428   61   994   387 40   70     0 10941 95   4    0    1

I'm unable to interpret the result.
Any help would be really useful to me at this moment.
.

Hi,
Your question should be posted in a unix forum instead of a java forum. The question, and the answer is not related to java.
The reason that prstat shows processes in sleaping state is that it doesn't create a snaphost at one point in time. It does instead show an average over some time (don't know the period), so the process has been running and consumed cpu, or is generally running, but currently sleeping.

Computer won't power up if the 2x2 CPU POWER connector is plugged in

Yesterday I assembled this computer and it was working great. Played games on it and everything.
MSI K9a2 CF, ATHLON 5000+, LC POWER 550W, RADEON 3850 256MB, 2x1G SUPER TALENT 800MHZ RAM.
3 hours ago I went to the store and left 2x PRIME95 torture test running just to check for stability. After 2hours I got home only to find out the the computer has been shut down but the KEYBOARD still had a light on the NUMLOCK led.
So then I unplugged the PSU from power and started up again. But the PC only started for half a second and then the power went off.
So I pulled everything out of the board only to find out that if the CPU POWER 2x2 connector is in the board then it will not power up. Then I also took out the cpu and try to power up without the CPU and with the CPU POWER 2x2 connector in and it also doesn't power up.
Conclusion:
If the 2x2 CPU power connector is in the MB regardless if the CPU is in or not then the computer will not power on. But if the 2x2 CPU power connector is absent then the computer powers up. But that don't do me any good since without that connector the CPU can't function.
I also tried hooking it up to another PSU but it does no good. The MB, CPU, GPU, RAM, HDDS are only 2days old.
Also it couldn't have overheated since the temperatures never went higher than 50C during full load thx to Scythe Ninja Revision B cooler and also there is no smell or any indication that something could be burned. The temps were checked with BIOS as with MSI probe.
My question is is the MB the problem?? So I would know which part to send back for warranty

Quote from: BOSSKILLER on 07-February-08, 13:24:04
Do you use system stock parameters?(No OC)
Check CPU cooling system.
List PSU details(Look over PSU sticker for them)
Everything was at stock speed there was even no tweaking involved.
CPU cooling system was working great. Under load the max temperatures it had gotten was 50C. And also the CASE was opened so there was no chance of overheating. And also when I started PRIME95 I opened the window and closed the radiators which means the room temperature was about 15C celsium only.
LC POWER 550w 140MM fan.

It is probably the board right? I must know this quick to RMA it

Why can't I make Lightroom use all the CPU-Power (all cores) available for generating Previews?

Dear Lightroom Team,
I've been a Lightroom user since the very first Beta, and I am truly happy with the work you deliver. It changed my way of editing forever, and you guys keep improving it.
Yet there is that one question that bothers me, and that i'm looking for an answer for.
My Workflow has the generate Previews checkbox checked by standard. I usually import between 150 and 2000 photos at once, on occaions it can be up to 5000 photos. Generating Previews always takes a significant amount of time, and Lightroom is only using 25% of my CPU Power while doing so. (using a MacBook Pro 8,2)
I understand the concept, that only using 25% CPU enables me to use the computer while waiting for the Previews. But most of the time I just grab myself a cup of coffee, do the dishes or other stuff, while waiting for the Previews. Usually I rund out of things to do, because it takes ages to Process all the photos. So I would really love to make Lightroom use ALL the cpu power possible.
I'm sure you guys have spent a lot of thoughts while coding this and have a very good answer handy. Looking forward reading it!
all the best,
Wolfgang

On my four-year old Windows 7 i7-860 system LR4.4.1 takes ~0.5 sec. per Canon 5D MKII 21Mp raw image to render 'Standard-Sized' previews with LR Catalog Settings 'Standard Preview Size' set to '2048' pixels. I consider that pretty fast!
I usually build 1:1 full-size previews on import, which takes ~5.0 sec. per image. Processor utilization varies between 15-50% for Standard-Sized previews and 15-65% for 1:1 previews. I consider this pretty slow, but it doesn't stop me from working on the images inside LR's Library and Develop modules.
I wait until 'Copy and import photos' has completed and can see Preview Building has started. LR doesn't slow-down much even with the 1:1 preview building going on in the background. Have you tried working in LR during the preview building (i.e. sorting, rating, keywording, and Develop adjustments)?

What gives you the right to do this to people? Firefox's abuse of my time, patience and computer's resources such as: memory and CPU power!

First and foremost, I need you to understand that over the years I have not only come to heavily rely on Firefox myself, but highly recommended Firefox to literally thousands of people in the course of my work.
The reason for this is very simple... Firefox fast became the most fantastic, configurable and versatile yet highly user-friendly, internet browser in the world! All due to its great: speed and reliability, as well as, crash resistance and economical system resource usage, to name just a few factors!
This is why I'm so upset with you! You establish yourself as the best and then one day just stop being excellent, and start getting worse!
So what have you done?
Ever since version 4, Firefox has progressively regressed in performance and reliability! Firefox is now incapable of running on my computer, without hanging with the CPU power of this quad core machine maxed out! The consequence this freezing has is either: immense frustration on my part right before being forced to kill the process that is not responding from the task manager, or Firefox eventually crashing on its own!
After being so fantastic you start doing this to people? How can you justify this at all?
I am seriously thinking about moving to Google Chrome if this doesn't get resolved ASAP! What do you think about that?
Here is a full list of the latest crash reports, but just from the beginning of August! The list is so big, it didn't fit in the little box you provided below, so here is list:

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).
Also see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for more details.

MSI X99 AC Power Motherboard 8pin+4pin CPU Power?

Hello, I just opened my msi x99 ac and I see it has an 8pin and 4pin cpu power near the top, now that is like what my asus extreme 1150 had, however I only have 2 8pins from my 1200w corsair ax. However right next to the 4pin is a little something, so the 8pin wont work because there is no place for the extra 4pins to hang down. How did you guys wire this up? Because before I just use 2 8pins and the 4 extra pins hanged down the side, but it wont work with this mobo
Thanks

As far as I can guess, 4 pin is for OC. How do you connect it? I don't know. But I think it will work fine without this 4 pin.
Check the manual

Mail uses too much CPU power

I don't know why Mail uses something like 99% of the cpu power. It does that a few minutes after it opens. I'm running Lion on a Macbookpro3,1.
Thanks

i am having the same problem. it slows when (a) it's accessing inboxes, or junk or trash ..., (b) it slows when i start a message, (c) it slows intermittently when i am typing a message, (d) it slows when i am sending a message, (e) it slows when i close mail, (f) it slows just about every moment i do ANYTHING.
i had no problem like this in tiger prior to installing Leopard (upgrade). i am using a 2.5 GHx iMac G5. i have cleaned out all the unnecessary inboxes in ~/Library that are generated by reaccessing the IMAP accounts after the leopard upgrade. i don't have large/many-filed mailboxes at ALL either on the IMAP accounts or on the computer.
everytime it slows it the cpu is hovering between 60 and 90% on mail.app.
conversely, i didn't encounter this problem on my 2 powerbooks. one powerbook got a fresh install and i just ported over the mailboxes. the other i did an upgrade.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Java uses up WAY too much cpu power only in firefox.

I seem to have found out that firefox is using up to 60% of my cpu power(average of each core). It seems to be a problem with Java and maybe windows 7 64 bit. When I turn java off it's fine and uses maybe 10% tops. But since 2 main sites I use use only java I can't just turn it off.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I moved up from Win XP 32 bit up to 7 64 bit.

Ok I guess you have stumped me, but disabling java in the past did bring down my cpu usage. Cpu usage was no where near as high using that looping radar and this open, around 10 percent or less. As for extensions I only have the java console and skype. I've tried using gmail alone without my usual tabs, also tried facebook(which I thought were the culprits) but cpu usage didn't stay up, only spiked at loading. So I guess it's back to square one...I'm wondering if it's just having a somewhat good amount of tabs open. Last night though was fine when I opened firefox just to see.

Seems Firefox is suddenly using a lot of CPU power

My desktop, recently, started sounding like it was really laboring while I wander around the net. And there's a delay as I type messages like this... the letters show up a second or two behind the keystrokes.
I looked at CPU usage (Win XP with all updates) and while I'm doing this, it sometimes peaks to 35% or higher for Firefox.exe.
My laptop has recently started telling me Firefox is using a lot of memory and I should close and restart Firefox. (Also updated Win XP)
It's becoming a big PITA...

It didn't show up when i searched for the problem on Google and it didn't show up when i search here on Firefox's support site either.
And the reason it didn't because it's mostly not about my problem.
'''If' it was one of those things then i would have a high CPU usage the minute i opened my browser, but i don't.'''
'''It will use a lot of CPU power (after a couple of hours) even if i don't do anything '''
And yes hardware acceleration is on and so is submit performance data and i use Ad Block Plus, and there isn't a correctly working theme or add-on out there that could use 50-60% of a 3.2GHz quad core CPU
I don't think this is something that can be fixed that easily

Why is it that I'm lacking cpu power when I'm doing high tasking things but when i run a dinky little game it decides to use all the power possible?

why is it that im lacking cpu power when I'm doing high tasking things but when i run a dinky little game it decides to use all the power possible? its like when i need it its not there and then when i dont its there?

Multi-select LOV's hang form and use 100% CPU power

Hello,
We are using Designer 6i (6.5.52.1.0) and Headstart 6.5
In one of our forms we are using 6 Multi-select LOV's.
When we click the Cancel or Ok button (included through QMS_MSEL_LOV_BUTTONS), or hit Enter query in one of the ML_... blocks the form hangs and starts using all the CPU-power. I've tested this locally (c/s) and through the web (iAS), same result...
I already rebuilt the LOV's but the problem isn't solved.
We've got other forms with one or two multi-select LOV's, and these work fine.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour before, and what is the cure?
Thanks in advance!
Wouter

Wouter,
If you are running against Solaris, you could be running into the following:
Headstart applications that run via webforms on a Sun Solaris application server, suffer again from bug 1985903. This bug was spotted and solved a time ago and seemed to be solved at next
releases of Forms 6i. Now, on Solaris the bug is introduced again.
Description
===========
1. When using a multi-select LOV (which is displayed in a modal dialog
window), you select the records you want, press OK, and the application exits.
2. When using a shuttle control to move records from left to right or vice
versa, you select the records you want, press '>' to move them, and the
application exits.
This occurs in Forms 6.0.8.13.0 and 6.0.8.14.1. It did NOT occur in prior
releases. This is some kind of forms bug.
Workaround
==========
For some reason the call to procedure renumber in qms$msel.process_records
causes the application to exit. If you copy the code from renumber to all the
places from which it is called, it works fine.
- open qmslib65.pll in Form Builder
- open package body qms$msel
- find procedure process_records and define a local variable l_recno of type
number.
- find local procedure renumber and copy the body of this procedure
(everything
after 'begin' and before 'exception').
- replace each call to 'renumber;' with the copied code.
A new version of qms$msel package body is available on iXchange for download.
See Headstart Oracle Designer 6i, Bugs and Fixes.
Hope this helps,
