article About Parse-metadata - (all-vga-corner)

Parse-metadata
What the hell is parse-metadata?

Finally, after nearly 2 years of suspense, I found the ROOT of the 100% CPU utilisation - the evil of my high CPU wastage.

I am thinking that Intel celeron sucks because it always run at 100% utilisation in Linux thus slowing down the system. Maybe the RAM is not enough. Maybe hdd is too slow. All are not true. The reason is due to a corrupted zmd.db file.

To resolve, follow the following steps:

1) enter root and open system monitor and stop zmd from running by terminating it when you spot it running;

2) open terminal and stop zmd by typing "zczmd stop". If you do not see "done.", you probably did not close zmd in memory as mentioned in (1);

3) delete the file in /var/lib/zmd/zmd.db;

4) start ZMD by "zczmd start";

5) reboot and login as root; and

6) zmd will run for a few minutes and stable down after the zmd.db file is recreated.

Problem solved... finally. CPU should be 0% most of the time.
