Hi all,

I have quite strange and high (high for such application) cpu usage: 88288 lucky 1 97 0 47540K 11460K select 4:32 3.42% xfce4-battery-plugi 27290 lucky 1 96 0 27364K 19420K select 2:30 0.05% sim 15187 lucky 4 20 0 12368K 8536K kserel 19:36 0.00% xmms 78261 lucky 1 96 0 12404K 7804K select 1:11 0.00% xfce4-wavelan-plugi 18050 lucky 1 96 0 51504K 16328K select 0:35 0.00% xfce4-panel

sim and xmms both are using much less cpu than battery-plugin! is it ok? )

also is it normal that plugin use so much memory?

I have a Compaq Evo n610c laptop.
