Hello,

I'm using psi together with gpg encryption, and since Lenny, I found
that psi frequently triggers some gpg action that consumes 100% cpu for
a minute or so, slowing down the whole machine. I didn't have this
problem in Etch. Unfortunately, this problem doesn't only appear on
startup, but rather frequently while psi is running.

Kind regards,

This is most probably a limitation of libqca2-plugin-gnupg. The version
of libqca2-plugin-gnupg in debian is very old. I was always waiting for
an official upstream release, but even now, the latest version available
is a 'beta3'. Probably I should just upload that and see if this problem
is fixed.

For what its worth, I built my own version libqca2-plugin-gnupg_2.0.0~beta3
package. That solved pretty much all gnupg related Psi problems I have had in
Ubuntu 9.04.  While I haven't done any testing against Debian systems, I
figured I'd still mention it, since the problems seems related.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367317 for more information.

The version of libqca2-plugin-gnupg stretch is 2.1.1-4.
In buster libqca2-plugins is 2.1.3-2.

Did this solve the issue?
