Too many Python processes running

Solution 1:

They are normal i guess,type ps x | grep python in terminal to find out what it is.It may be some applets or programs running in your system.

This is my output:

karthick@Ubuntu-desktop:~$ ps x | grep python
 2133 ?        S      0:10 python /usr/share/stackapplet/stackapplet.py
 2134 ?        S      0:01 python /usr/share/system-config-printer/applet.py
 9988 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto python
