>3.5.13 kdm_greet eats lots of CPU.
Thank you for tracing the problem. Given the high CPU load observed I
probably have no choice but to rework the SAK pipe code in tdm to use a
TQSocketNotifier to avoid busywaiting.
That would be the 'proper' solution but I'm not familiar enough with QT
to even attempt that!
In the meantime, the silly little changes I made allow folk to get
around the issue and won't effect a future 'proper' solution.
It's also worth commenting that for most people with a single machine
it's not really a big issue in the first place; I'm unusual in have lots
of kdm_greets running.
Opening a bug report on this issue
would help us track the problem and any potential fixes that are committed
to GIT; you can also attach your patch to the new bug report.
Reopened Bug 690 and added the patch to that.
