Has anyone experienced slow down on BBB running latest debian due to PCManFM consuming > 50% cpu?
I installed debain, ran apt-get update, apt-get upgrade then ran command to upgrade bonescript.
All ran fine, no errors and system was behaving.
“top” showed nothing weird and PCManFM was no where near top of the list. After a short while however the BBB started slowing down and now PCManFM is up in the 50%'s

I don't see anything really standing out compared to the updated image
i'm working on.. (even with pcmanfm open)
First thing i'd double check: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf are you using
"modesetting" or "fbdev" I changed this to "fbdev" right as we
launched the official debian image. (this has removed a lot of the
random lockups)
Regards,
Robert, thanks for responding. I just checked xorg.conf and it does/did have fbdev as you recommend.
Initially pcmanfm didn’t impact cpu loading and only kicked in after awhile. This has repeated through reboots and power-off/power-on. Highest I saw it was around 53% but this was enough to seriously slow everything down.
I will have to read up on pcmanfm to try understand what all it does.
It's just the file manager.

It shouldn't' be doing much of anything, unless opened.
