Except for me. dbus-daemon often uses 10-20% of my CPU according to top. And |
| 20 |
this morning, it was using about 750M of memory. Which is less than kwin's |
| 21 |
and Kontact's usage, but still. |
| 22 |
But I think the problem is on my side, I run KDE4 with only 8G of memory, no |
| 23 |
wonder I need 1.7G of swap right now. |
