TopIcon Plus makes GS consume 40-50% cpu time
System: Fedora 29 with GS/Mutter git, Thinkpad 460p, Intel Skylake, Wayland session
How to reproduce:
- install TopIcon Plus
- open an application that creates systray icon (tested with pidgin and blizzard app via wine)
Observed behaviour:
- GS takes up 40-50% cpu time (on one of four cores)
- Xwayland is also unusually active (1-2% cpu time)
- AppIndicator addon is not affected
While this might be simply an extension bug, I wanted to bring it up here as well. Given the simplicity of the addon, I wouldn't be surprised if a bug in GS/Mutter was causing this. But I also didn't double check yet if anything else might be to blame, so treat this as 'unconfirmed' :)
Update: this also occurs on Ubuntu Disco, both on Wayland an X11
