This bug is still open so I assume it's here to post: Today I had a 100% (out of 400%) CPU consumption by a process called gnome-panel. Apart from the laptop turning loud I did not notice any issues and killing it resulted in it going quiet again.
So for now the issue is not reproducible for me but annoying especially when on battery. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/479826 Title: gnome-panel consuming 100% of CPU and driving up memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/479826/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
