1813	Excessive enlightenment. CPU/syscalls	alvieboy	openmoko-devel	"enlightenment shipped with Om2008.8 eats a lot of CPU (average 6%), and seems to do some ""stupid"" things.

This is a 10s run of strace on the process, showing just the summary:

This makes about 180 syscalls/second. 

But the most ""stupid"" one is enlightnment stat'ing ""/usr/share/enlightenment/data/themes/illume.edj"" about 6 times per second. Also it iterates over USB devices, but I am not sure what for.

These dumps were made with Neo idling.

Is this an enlightenment defect/feature, or Om build of enlightenment ?"	defect	closed	normal	Om2008.8	unknown	Om2008.8	normal	fixed
