Public bug reported:
After booting and logging in, it takes a long time for the computer to
settle down and become properly usable. Heaving hard-disc activity by
gnome-software which lasts for over a minute. This is revealed by
`iotop` as the only application with around 99% of the disk access.
This is a serious problem on single-disk machines as programs can't
properly start until it's over.
The program appears to be present in Startup Applications with the
command `/usr/bin/gnome-software --gapplication-service`, even for the
guest user.
