Christian Hergert: Profiling with medium-aged hardware
I like to keep myself honest by using slower computers regularly to do my job. When things become obnoxious, it reminds me to take a closer look at what’s going on.
Today, I did some more profiling of 45.beta with a not-too-old-but-still-a-bit-old laptop. It’s the first laptop I received at Red Hat in 2015. X1 Carbon gen3 (5th gen i7), with 8gb RAM. Not amazing by today’s standards, but still pretty good! Surely things will be fine.
Okay, so first up, after boot, I ssh in from my workstation so I can run
sysprof-cli --session-bus --system-bus capture.syscap
. Immediately afterwards, I type my login password and hit Enter.Things are hanging for quite some time, what does Sysprof say?

Password manager wrapper in tray
There is now 'pw-tray' which sits in the tray:
[...]...the snapshot shows KeePassXC in the tray, but the icon on the left is intended to be the only password manager in the tray in the future.
'pw-tray' is very simple. All it does is run whatever password manager is specified in /usr/local/bin/defaultpasswordmanager.
