Thanks a lot, I do not understand your command dpkg-statoverride --update --remove /usr/bin/gjs-console This is the process that takes 100% of the CPU /usr/bin/gjs-console -I /usr/share/gnome-documents/js -c const SearchProvider = imports.shellSearchProvider; SearchProvider.start(); The problem is related to gnome-documents which I think is a kind of crawler: GNOME Documents is a standalone application to find, organize and view your documents. I tried to remove gnome-documents but gnome depends on gnome-documents. The solution will be to create a script that is executed in the startup of gnome and does a killall gjs-console.
