tmux @2.0: Exiting causes high notifyd CPU usage on El Capitan

[hotpxl (Yutian Li)]

If I let tmux run for some time (half hour) and then exit (not just detaching), it will cause 100% notifyd CPU usage on El Capitan and freezes the whole system.

Sorry should have set Port to tmux... Don't know how to change it.

Check if the tmux-devel port has the same problem. That uses a newer development version of tmux from July.

Problem still exists with tmux-devel.

Hi Ryan.

I've updated the Portfile to build from the latest commit point for tmux-devel.

[tessus (Helmut K. C. Tessarek)]

If this latest code has the same problem on El-Capitan, the OP has to open a ticket on tmux mailing list or group (​https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/tmux-users).

[tessus (Helmut K. C. Tessarek)]

Ryan, do you want me to open a separate defect for the tmux portfile update?

Hi, How should I update my tmux-devel to the new version? On macports it's still the july one

You can either wait until Ryan will have updated the Portfile on the global repo. Or you could use a local repository as described in the documentation.

For testing purposes you can download a compiled binary at ​https://evermeet.cx/pub/macosx/tmux-devel/tmux
Please note that it was compiled within the macports environment on Mac OS X 10.9.5.

Hi. I went ahead and compiled a GitHub (​https://github.com/tmux/tmux) version of hash 7120ab2. Everything works fine now. Could you update it to the latest github version?

That's the binary I sent you the link to. It is the version of hash 7120ab2. In any case, I have updated the Portfile, but Ryan has to apply it, since I do not have write permission on the svn repo. Still not sure why git (plus gitolite for access) isn't used for MacPorts. That would make things so much easier.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Sorry, I didn't see the above messages because I was not Cc'd on this ticket. I've Cc'd myself now, and will apply the patch to the port. Note that when the version of a port is increased, its revision should be dropped to 0.

Discussions about switching the MacPorts repository from Subversion to Git should occur on the macports-dev mailing list, not in a ticket. This discussion has occurred a number of times before; you may want to search the archives first to see what we talked about the last times it came up.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Actually I am reminded now that the patch to update tmux-devel was already committed in #49173. The request to update the tmux port is #49364.
