How to debug problems with polkitd in 14.04?
Asked by
Andy Howell
After upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04, polkitd uses 60+% CPU and system is VERY sluggish. Killing polkitd "fixes" the problem. This only happens at boot. I've left the machine idle for 10 minutes, and still polkitd and dbus-daemon are taking lots of CPU.
Sometimes NetworkManager as well takes a lot of CPU. Again, after killing polkitd after boot-up, the problem goes away. polkitd gets restarted and the system is responsive.
I didn't have this problem in 13.10 and previous releases.
