CPU intensive python process sometimes launched when atom is closed if this package is installed

When atom is closed after using autocomplete, a python process launches in the background. This process is CPU intensive and doesn't end, has to be force closed. I am using the Jedi system on Windows 10.

I've been using this as a workaround:

import psutil
from time import sleep

PROCNAME = "python.exe"

for proc in psutil.process_iter():
# check whether the process name matches
if proc.name() == PROCNAME and proc.cpu_percent(interval=0.2) > 20:
cpu = proc.cpu_percent(interval=0.2)
proc.kill()
print(proc.name(), 'stopped ({}%)'.format(cpu))
break
sleep(1)

Same problem, Windows 10. Atom was closed hours ago and suddenly I hear fan spinning in my laptop. I'm checking running processes - completion.py from autocomplete-python, 25% of CPU usage. Please fix this.

After closing Atom, there is a Python process with a CPU usage of 15-20%. This makes my PC really slow. Even performing simple tasks, PC lags. The process never stops unless I manually stop it. Reappears when I open again Atom.
The process is there while working with atom but has no CPU usage(0%). Goes to mentioned usage after exiting atom.
I am on Windows 10 Creator's Edition.

For me closing Atom is not even necessary, however I could not figure out what is triggering the high load.
I am on Windows 10 too.

@sadovnychyi We totally love this atom package. But as a community would love your feedback on this. Thanks!

How does it work, do I report a separate issue for Linux?

It's ok to have this issue for both windows and Linux. But I never seen this issue on macos. Will try to reproduce it on windows.

Also having problems with this, but only on one of my machines. Closing causes the python shell to go into a high CPU state with Atom owning the process and failing to close.

On some occasions the shell process has become detached from Atom and starts running as a parent process when viewed in the Windows Task Manager, even before I have invoked a close on Atom.

Python 3.6.4, Windows 10 1709

Exit the completion process on EOF

experiencing this as well on python 3.6, macos 10.13.4, atom 1.26.1, autocomplete-python 1.10.5

even after closing atom, a python3.6 process spawned by autocomplete-python continues to use 100% cpu.

thanks!

I just edited the file autocompletion.py
Changed this text:

    def watch(self):
        while True:
            try:
                sys.stdout, sys.stderr = self.devnull, self.devnull
                self._process_request(self._input.readline())
            except Exception:
                ys.stderr = self.stderr
                sys.stderr.write(traceback.format_exc() + '\n')
                sys.stderr.flush()

to, this:

    def watch(self):
        while True:
            try:
                sys.stdout, sys.stderr = self.devnull, self.devnull
                self._process_request(self._input.readline())
            except Exception:
                #sys.stderr = self.stderr
                #sys.stderr.write(traceback.format_exc() + '\n')
                #sys.stderr.flush()
                sys.exit(1)
