Curious question: Reason for the question is that I am trying to hunt down a battery problem on a laptop.
Why would the budgie-panel process use 6x the cpu of the window manager? On Solus each process is about the same.
you’ll need to remove applets one at a time - restart the panel between each removal to see which one is higher than you were expecting.
BTW the screenshot shows %CPU of zero - are you referring the memory?

Yes, I am doing that now.

No CPU Time
restart the panel
budgie-panel --reset ??
Looks like Icon Task List is the problem.
budgie-panel --replace &
huh? The budgie-desktop v10.5 code (in theory) should be the same across all budgie based distro’s in this area.
OK, I was wrong. Looks like the Screenshot applet is the problem. I did a reset and added that applet and then logout/in and the panel cpu time started going up. Should I file an issue?
unusual - yes please - file an issue https://github.com/cybre/budgie-screenshot-applet
Is it a gradual CPU buildup or only when you start doing specific things?

Nope, log out/in launch monitor and observe
Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get a reproducible set of metrics on this, so will have to hold off till I can do some more analysis.
