@Arul: I'm still seeing it happen on 16.04. Upgrading to 17 isn't an option for
some of us as we rely on third parties that don't support non-LTS releases
(e.g., DSE Cassandra)
@Ketil: Couldn't agree more. Lower priority bugs are the red-headed stepchild
on launchpad.

Realised that this was happening on a few 16.04 LTS machines I manage.
It's one thing for me to kill the daemon periodically myself... and
completely another to have annoyed users for months without being
handled.
For now we settle with crontab -e

stupid 'initctl' running anymore!

@Arul, I found something similar in my comment above, at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1173915/comments/5.
But it's been almost 4 years since this issue was reported, and over 2
years since I added my comment, and it's clearly not fixed yet, or even
prioritised.
In fact,
Any update on a fix to this problem?
My work around is to kill the initctl if/when I restart; I haven't
noticed any adverse effect on anything I do on a daily basis and it is
running more than 2+ weeks with no sign of initctl going crazy. Since I
very rarely reboot (only after any updates and

Title:

Happens on Ubuntu 16.10 (fresh install, Compiz fallback session) after a few
hours of uptime.
htop reports 100% usage of one CPU for the command
/sbin/initctl emit indicator-services-start
which goes on indefinitely. Tracing (with only this initctl process
around) yields similar to #5
$ sudo
It's happening me to me in ubuntu 16.10 after a day of uptime maybe...

Same issue here, Ubuntu 14.04 64 bits on a Toshiba Portege Z30-A 18J, custom
kernel 3.18.11 64 bits though. I suspect it has something to do with certain
processes running on the system, such as perhaps Nautilus, but no hard
evidence. The problem only occurs after a long uptime duration.
