** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  Since fixing bug 1672297 in release 18.04 we experience much higher
  (almost double) CPU usage during gnome-shell JavaScript operations, such
  as the icon spring animation.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  Use 'top' to measure the CPU usage of the gnome-shell process while
  tapping Super+A repeatedly. It should be much lower with the fix than
  without.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
- Low/Medium. This particular fix
- (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/236) has been
+ Low. This particular fix is tiny
+ (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/merge_requests/236) and has been
  released and used in a couple of upstream gjs versions already without
- issue. The real regression potential comes from other bug fixes included
- in version 1.54.2
- (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/blob/gnome-3-30/NEWS). Although they
