dmesg full of whoopsie message : bug or real problem ?

Asked by Coeur Noir

Hi,

I noticed dmesg shows many messages regarding whoopsie.

Monitor shows whoopsie uses sometimes 18% cpu and 4Go ram, slowing down the system.

apport-bug seems to be triggered but can't be sent.

Hence the question : is it a bug regarding whoopsie or has my system got a problem ?

complete dmesg → http://paste2.org/dIF376Jf

Of course uninstalling whoopsie package no longer shows messages in dmesg but might not be the better workaround ;-)
