Subject: wicd-daemon uses 2+% cpu all the time. keeps my fan running
Date: Sun, 16 Oct 2011 21:10:34 -0400
Package: wicd-daemon
Version: 1.7.0+ds1-6
Severity: normal
Hello,
I've got a very slow laptop here, so when I say it's using 2%, that
might translate to 0.2-0.5% on your computer.
I switched from calling wpa_supplicant, wpa_cli and dhcpcd manually
to wicd recently, and after a few days noticed that my fan never
goes off anymore. A quick poke around found a couple python
processes from wicd-daemon soaking up a little cpu time.
In the output of "top" below, please note the uptime (6-ish hours)
and the total time of the wicd processes. I grabbed this output
when the CPU values were at a typical value.
For the vast majority of the time this computer was on, it was
connected to one WPA2 wireless network while it sat it one place
with the lid closed, doing absolutely nothing. (Except running the
fan.)

I see dbus has a fair amout of time. But I suspect that it is being
activated by wicd. So perhaps wicd-daemon is causing 3.4% cpu?
Oh, I did run wicd-gtk -n a couple times, but it was not left open.
I hope there's an easy fix :)
Thank you, - Jason
