mono apps power consumption

Any idea why mono apps write/update ~/.wapi/shared_* files every 40s ? These files are mapped and their timestamp change even when sleeping... Please help :)

update: bug forwarded upstream

Thumbnails explosion

Fri Sep 5 13:02:56 CEST wafl.dir.size.max:warning: Directory /vol/vol0/users/luser/.thumbnails/normal/ reached the maxdirsize limit. Reduce the number of files or use the vol options command to increase this limit.

Huhu. There were actually 2 x 135k files under this users's ~/.thumbnails/normal and .thumbnails/fail directories :)

This is RHEL 4.5, there's already a bug about it (i can't find it, but i'm subscribed to it).

I can see that ext4 raised it's dirsize limit from 32K to 64k, looks like it's not enough :)

API superhero

There's a one 1.4K patch for policykit (now an external depency) support for system-monitor (~7K SLOC) to basically replace 3 lines of gksu. Oh yes i know "it's so much powerfull" (that you have to rewrite kill, renice, etc). I'd rather depend on the new Linux file capabilities...
Kov was already my hero because of the clean design of libgksu API...

He's now my superhero !
