We should assign this bug to an overarching component/project as multiple independent services (media-hub, location-service, dbus-daemon) are affected.
However, one idea that came to my mind: It might be that a spurious posix signal is causing these issues, probably a SIGHUP somewhere, arising on a thread that the respective signal is not blocked on. I will keep on investigating into that direction. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to dbus-cpp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380848 Title: Apps and services use large amount of CPU after unity8 resets Status in Media Hub: Triaged Status in “dbus-cpp” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I noticed that media-hub-service can get into a state where it uses a large amount of CPU.
