Description

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Using the ubuntu-mate image, noticed that after a while when container is not used/idle, The CPU usage is quite high.

After investigating the issue i found that the default screen saver is using the resources :

When disabling the screensaver or changing to blank screen the CPU usage is nearly nothing.

Expected Behavior

I think it is better to change the default screen saver to less resource intensive one or at least allow to change it via the environment parameters.

Steps To Reproduce

Run a new instance and wait 30 minutes (or change the screen saver time to less)

Watch docker status CPU usage for the container.
