Description of problem:Vim uses too much cpu Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vim-common-6.1-29 vim-X11-6.1-29 vim-enhanced-6.1-29 vim-minimal-6.1-29 How reproducible: General use, nothing specific Steps to Reproduce: 1.Edit some files with vi 2.General workstation use 3. Edit a file with vi Actual results: Cpu load for vi hits 99% Expected results: Would not think an editor needs so much cpu Additional info: I have been seeing this problem on and off for the past few versions of Redhat. I notice the problem from Bubbling Load Monitor 2.0.1 or any other system monitor in gnome. Doing a top confirms vim is the pig. It may be related to vim not closing gracefully if I had to guess, but I'll leave that to the experts :-). I say this becuase I have exited vim and one is sticking around, killall vim usually does not kill it, but sometimes it does. Doing a kill -9 works every time.
