From https://bugs.launchpad.net/catfish-search/+bug/1728439 i'm using catfish 1.2.2 in gentoo, and i noticed a huge increase in gpu usage activity during idle. after searching file content on some c code with catfish and i left it there with a few result in a small folder. it started making my computer laggy
I'm not able to reproduce this. Catfish doesn't do anything specific with the GPU, but I performed some idle testing and saw no change in the memory, CPU, or GPU usage after 2 hours of idle time.
