indicator-applet is using about as much CPU time as Xorg, and regularly
consumes 100% CPU for couple seconds.

ran /usr/lib/indicator-applet/listen-and-print as suggested, and it
produces no additional output and consumes no CPU when indicator-applet
is using 100% CPU. Buddy signon/off notification is disabled in pidgin-
libnotify.

31MB RES also seems to be a bit heavy for a process that just sends
message to notify-osd

Status in Indicator Applet: Incomplete

Bug description:
On a system up for roughly 6 days, indicator-applet had used over 200 minutes 
of CPU time. This is a portable system, so it's also wasting battery runtime. 
Considering the rather limited scope of what indicator-applet does, it should 
be consuming 2-3 orders of magnitude less CPU time.

(To put things in perspective, the X server on this same machine has racked up 
only 332 minutes of CPU time).
