I'm (again) in the process of optimizing my
laptops power consumption. I noticed that "tdepowersafe" consumes ~ 2.5% of all
CPU cycles - this is more than Xorg (1.6%) but less than htop (6.3%). So my question is:
does tdepowersafe do constant polling? IMO it should take almost no CPU cycles (<1%)?
That is mostly through tdehw which in some cases can to freeze
interfaces and so I have fixed the issue for myself in the patch
tdehw-NoFreeze.patch
<https://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=3199>, also as many
other TDE issues like this one. :)
So, I have not more than 0.5% CPU loading on 800 МГЦ CPU by tdepowersafe!
