i hope this is the right place to post this question / issue. I notice that my system resources max-out when the system sits idle for 10-minutes, which is what the screen saver "was" set to. I have screen saver un-checked to watch / verify this is happening. I have AMD 4000 @ 2.4 G. and 1 GB ram.
This isn't normal is it? Not for Linux?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Resource drain on system idle
Do you have beagle installed? Chances are its indexing stuff in the background and thus consumes a lot of I/O and CPU cycles. I personally don't like that stuff at all and removed it plus all its components completely. Can you check if beagle is on your system? It could be the culprit causing this ...newW2 wrote:I notice that my system resources max-out when the system sits idle for 10-minutes, which is what the screen saver "was" set to.
Yes scorp there is a beagle barking in the the back yard. I've removed beagle and will monitor to see if that helps. Promptly got a "could not load icon (icon 'system-search' not found)" popup after removal.
I noticed that evolution is one of the things that it indexes. I have another machine that I just loaded that has beagle installed but not evolution setup.
One other specific: beryl is installed on the box presenting this issue.
Now for some coffee ....
Edit:
Removing beagle has not affect.
Correction it did work. I tried it again - seems like magic but I'm sure I did something different. Thanks again for the help.
