[orca-list] Orca being restless

[Mike Gorse <mgorse alum wpi edu>]

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-
