--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-shell Version: 3.20.2-1 Severity: normal After the last upgrade (from version 3.18) I noticed an high CPU utilization for gnome.shell.

() (But due to probable stack corruption and lack of debugging symbols I don't think this so meaningful) I can provide also a core dump, if needed.
