Recentemente, mudei do Kubuntu 17.10 para o Kubuntu 18.04 (instalado recentemente). O problema é que o processo systemd-udevd
está em execução constante e consome 90-100% da carga da CPU. Depois de mexer em todos os dispositivos, descobri que é por causa do WiFi! Depois de ligar o Wi-Fi, o processo começa a ser executado e a carga da CPU sobe para 100%. Mas sempre que eu desligo o Wi-Fi, ele fica zero! Aqui estão os top
resultados quando o Wi-Fi está ativado:

Meu novo Kubuntu instalado está usando a versão do kernel 4.15.0-20-generic
e meu laptop é o Dell Studio XPS 1640. O WiFi está usando o bcmwl-kernel-source 6.30.223.271+bdcom-0ubuntu4
driver (o downgrade para um driver em funcionamento anterior não resolveu o problema).
Vale ressaltar que nenhum dispositivo USB está conectado, apenas um mouse sem fio, o que não gera problemas (desconectar não afeta o problema). Mas, como mencionado, desativar o WiFi sempre faz desaparecer a alta carga da CPU.
