** Description changed:

  Just going about my business on Ubuntu Raring amd64 on an x230 and I
  heard the fan kick into action.  top showed me that unity-panel-service
  was consuming all the free cycles on one of my CPUs.  I killed it before
  my machine overheated, so I didn't attach a debugger to see why it was
  totally pegging out a  CPU.
  
  I'm not sure if this adds any context, but I was using a LibreOffice
  spreadsheet and I could not insert a table because the menu had lost
  it's mind, and then I observed the overly loaded CPU a very short while
  after that.
+ 
+ TEST CASE:
+ 
+ Open a large image in the GIMP and activate a lot of items from the
+ global menu. Using shortcuts is enough and faster to reproduce this bug
+ (I've always used Ctrl+A and Ctrl+Shift+A). Memory usage of unity-panel-
+ service increases steadily and it uses a lot of CPU shortly after
+ activating the menu items in a short time.
