Description Robin Jacobs 2012-08-25 11:44:52 CEST 
Description of problem: When I right-click on the desktop, and choose Change Desktop Background, my music starts to lag. Looking at Htop, I saw that Gnome Control Centre was eating my system resources.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.4.1-2.mga2

Steps to Reproduce: Right-click the desktop, and choose Change Desktop Background.

Mageia 2, Gnome, AMD64, x11-driver-video-nvidia-current

I just figured out that it happens because it's scanning my Pictures folder in the background. Once it finishes doing that, the CPU usage goes down again.
Pictures folder; 9,682 items, totalling 7.6 GB
Maybe there should be some kind of maximum CPU usage for the scan.

Maybe you can ask an upstream bug for that ?

Hi, this is an upstream bug, not something Mageia packagers can (easily) fix. I'm assigning to the maintainer though, who can maybe see if that was fixed upstream already, or have more insights than me.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life.  If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

Mageia 2 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on ''22 November''. Mageia 2 is no
longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or
bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
