Hello all, I am having a consistent high CPU usage by the Budgie desktop environment running on Solus, often reaching 350%+ CPU on a single process, in addition to up to 20% on other 16, according to //htop//. Rarely, it would hit 600% and 55% CPU usage on those same processes. The tested kernels were //4.9.22-17.lts// and //4.12// (linux-current today), while the //4.9// was also tested on a fresh OS installation. The //~/.xsession-errors// file was actually empty. I am attatching my //sudo journalctl -a// output: {F136402} //dmesg//: {F136403} and lastly, my //pstree//: {F136424} This is my system: http://pasted.co/ddb4db1d Here is a screenshot of //htop//: http://imgur.com/a/2g2jo It looks like having a browser open, be it Firefox or Google Chrome, has a big impact on this cpu usage, as it instantly goes from 200% CPU to 350% as soon as I open them. The same can be observed with multimedia software such as playing a video on MPV. Having Gnome MPV idle (as in no video file open) seems to have no impact on the cpu usage of the environment. The lowest CPU usage (95~100%) happens with no multimedia capable applications running, no streaming or media players of any kind.
