Re: [orca-list] Orca being restless



Hi Mike,

Do you notice any diffrence in behaviour, between 1E-3 and the default?
The things to try might be:

1. opening firefox with a large webpage, and using structural navigation
2. performing read all of a long document.
3. rough estimate, is the wait the same when you are opening a large 
nautilus directory listing?

If no negative inpact I would be tempted to see what 1E-2 does.
If you are using magnification, does the jumpyness differ?

is powertop estimated Wattage now back to reasonable levels?

Stabs in the dark.

Changing line 352 of pyatspi/registry.py to sleep for 1e-3 rather than  
1e-5 helps a lot for me.

Hi Mike,

Yes I have noticed this too, but didnt really investigate whereabouts in
the code it is happening.
running the profiler  would no doubt shed light on the matter.
It sounds like somewhere we are sleeping for short amounts of time, and
then waking up again.

It might also not be Orca, it might be because the at-spi knows that it
has a client running (orca in this instance) so it might be in a state of
alertness.

It would be intresting to track this down.

Hi all,

I noticed, over the last couple of days, that my laptop was drawing
around 20 w of power when it normally used to draw around 11-14 w.  I
remembered that maybe running powertop would tell me something
interesting.  Under "Top causes for wakeups", it gave the following:

66.0% (9082.9)            python : schedule_hrtimeout_range  
(hrtimer_wakeup)

I decided to try quitting Orca, and the power consumption very quickly
dropped back to around what I'd expect.  It is also using a significant
amount of cpu time, even when it isn't doing anything.  Has anyone else
seen this?  I'm using the newest Orca revision from svn and Python 2.6.
I tried setting my DebugLevel to ALL but didn't notice anything that I'd
consider od; just reactions to focus and state-changed events.

Thanks,
-Mike G-
