This may be the same issue I reported in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/showbug.cgi?id=74140

If you check CPU usage, you should see a thread stuck at 100% - this is apparently it trying to compile the opencl program. I have not tried waiting a long time to see if it does eventually fire up.

Yes, that seems to be it.

But there seems to be a memory leak, too. The thread eats up more and more RAM. Also after each

[2014-02-24 10:00:47] OCL 0: Idle for more than 60 seconds, declaring SICK! [2014-02-24 10:00:47] OCL 0: Attempting to restart [2014-02-24 10:00:47] Thread 0 still exists, killing it off [2014-02-24 10:00:48] Thread 0 restarted

it eats +1 core (so first 100%, then after that 200%, after the next 300% and so on). This repeats till it's killed cause of no more free RAM.

Should I add this information to your bug report?
