Updated to 13.10 from 13.04. CPU spikes for gnome-panel-service when I
launch gimp 2.8.6. The menu response is so slow it makes gimp unusable.

My wife is a professional photographer and uses gimp for most of her
editing. We also just updated to 13.10 from 13.04 and Gimp becomes
nearly unusable at times, with unity-panel-service often hogging a lot
of the CPU, causing very long delays for the menus to appear. This is a
major issue!

I'm having the same problem, but no clementine or libreoffice installed.
And only few indicators.
$ dpkg -l | egrep ^ii | egrep -o indicator-\\S*
indicator-applet
indicator-applet-complete
indicator-applet-session
indicator-application
indicator-appmenu
indicator-datetime
indicator-power
Would unity-panel-indicator be able to detect when an indicator is
spamming dbus and log the name of the offending indicator?

I had the issues also without having clementine installed at all, so to
me it seems it's just another trigger for the problem or yet another
problem. The only way I could reliably avoid the situation is by
disabling app menu.

It seems any number of indicators can exacerbate and trigger this
issue, but calling out one specific indicator as the culprit is
unhelpful, as we've all reproduced it with different combinations, and
even with stock installs.

I disagree that it's unhelpful.
It's very likely that there are several unrelated bugs in several
unrelated indicators that all cause similar problems. The unity-panel-
indicator program itself is a very small, lean program that just loads
indicators (which are plugins), provides a drawing
I've traced this and can see ~1MB of brk() heap increase per invocation
of gedit. So this is really leaking badly.

I watched rss to monitor the leak while opening and closing files in
gimp, and the process started going at 100% cpu somewhere around the
256k-270k range.
Interestingly, the rss goes up even if you just zoom in and out in gimp
- you don't even have to open a new file.

Simple reproducer that shows a leak in unity-panel-service (there may be
other scenarios that cause a leak too):
1) Open a terminal and watch the RSS size of the unity-panel-service process:
watch -n 0.5 ps -o rss= `pgrep unity-panel`
2) The value reported should stabilize
3) Launch gedit.
I have been experiencing this issue too, but it seems to affect me more
severely:
While the panel is pegging one of my 8 (4 with hyperthreading) cores, if
I try to use the HUD or system tray applets, I have about 10 seconds
within which to launch a terminal and kill the process before my
computer
I'm on saucy salamander with latest updates, always have the same issue,
starting from 4hr after reboot or killing unity panel service
Indicators doesn't seems as not the main reason - I've tried to disable
all non-standard indicators - still the bug happening but probably with
more bug-free time

This problem has been driving me nuts. It gets worse over time,
suggesting a leak someplace. Other evidence for a leak, the unity-panel-
service heap grows from 21MB on boot to 350MB or more after a few days
of uptime.
I profiled the system several times using sysprof (see attached
profile). The
@Steve,
You seem to run pretty similar programs as I do, except Tomboy and
emacs23 and I don't think emacs is an issue.
Yeah, let's see what happens when you don't run Tomboy. At this point,
I'm really beginning to suspect a non default indicator is causing some
headaches.
Thanks!

I have yet to see this on my 13.10 test system. I'm wondering if anyone
affected by this may have extra indicators besides the default ones
installed.

I have the following indicators:

With the exception the keyboard layout indicator, I've been running with

@Steve,
Thanks. The only indicator you have that I don't is Tomboy. Maybe an
update to it has caused some problems with u-p-s. I'll try installing
that and see if it repro's.
Also, Colin noted that he was using Libreoffice when he saw it. Are you
