Dear Maintainer, after upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie on my Samsung NC10 Netbook (Intel Atom CPU, i386) owncloud-client uses the whole CPU all the time making the whole system disturbingly slow. My owncloud server runs also on Debian Jessie and the problem occurs in the local network with very fast access to the server as well as abroad. owncloud folder has less than 4 GB space used, so it's still quite small I guess. I do not have this problem with x86-64 machines. This may be related to the following upstream bug, which was also spotted in different Ubuntu versions: https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues/2485 or maybe to some other bug also reported for Ubuntu [1]. Debian testing already has owncloud-client 2.0 depending on Qt5 so I did not try to use those packages, there's nothing in backports, so I decided to file this bug because I consider the package unusable on old/slow machines if it eats up all the CPU. I'm willing to support with tests or debugging, if somebody tells me how. Greets Alex [1] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/owncloud-client/+bugs
Hey, Thanks for your bugreport. In meanwhile there is 2.0.2 in backports, that can be tested. Is it still valid with 2.0.2? Regards, sandro
Dear Maintainer, Just to confirm this but "still" appears in 2.2.2+dfsg-1. In fact, it only just appeared after latest upgrade, but as I am a bit lazy in upgradin my sid systems, I have no idea what the previous version was. It was certainly newer than the original reporter's version. I tried running owncloud under strace but then it suddenly behaves normally, so could not even find out WHAT it is doing consuming all my cpu. Cheers, Juha
Dear Maintainers, Still present in 2.2.4+dfsg-1. This bug is rather severe and it has been present in the unstable for well over a year now with just a short question from you in all this time. I am sure your users would appreciate a status update and explanation of what is going on. At the very least, those of us also planning to upgrade to stretch in the not- so-distant future would be rather happy to see this resolved before freeze. Cheers, Juha
Hey, Well this is surely a upstream problem and not a problem of the Debian packaging. So please go upstream an report the bug. Please report the upsteam bugnumber here, so we can track, when this issue is closed upstream and we can backport the patch. Or if you get any useful tips. Regards, sandro
