Hello, Just trying out the Fedora 9 Preview LiveCD and it looks nice but there are a few edges yet. One of them is the system monitor performance. Firstly, it looks like the default refresh rate of 1 second is not being followed. It is actually something along the lines of 1/5th of that. Which makes for cool smooth looking charts of your CPU history but leads to a second problem. If you scale up the monitor's window size, you get a huge scaling up of the CPU load. On the default setting of 1/5 sec (1 sec in preferences) refresh, maximizing the Resource window pegs my AMD Athlon 2700 at 100%. If I set the refresh to ~1 sec (5 seconds in preferences), it drops down to 40% or so. Still not that great. If I switch to a different tab and then switch back after a while, the period when the chart was not showing has a low (<10%) CPU utilization. So it looks like drawing the chart that measures the CPU is taking a heck of a lot of CPU time. I wouldn't have thought drawing three lines would have such an impact and if it does, it makes it not very useful as a measurement/monitoring tool. Does anyone else see this? /Mike -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
