Description Jason Merrill 2007-12-03 17:17:05 UTC 
Description of problem:

After a suspend/resume cycle, startup of X applications becomes much slower; it
takes 15+ seconds to start a program that started up in less than a second
before the suspend.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gnome-session-2.20.1-1.fc8

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Suspend
2. Resume
3. strace xterm (or whatever)
  
Actual results:

strace shows that xterm startup blocks for 15+ seconds trying to read a response
from gnome-session.

Expected results:

No user-noticeable blocking.

Additional info:

I'm currently using a Thinkpad T61, but I noticed the same behavior in Fedora 7
on a Thinkpad T41.
Comment 1 Jason Merrill 2007-12-03 17:28:17 UTC 
Adding my hostname to the 127.0.0.1 line in /etc/hosts fixed the slowdown;
apparently it happens because DNS is trying and failing to resolve my hostname.
