I profiled this piece of junk.  Console kit daemon spends more than 94%
of its time in g_slist_find() at the top of this stack:

My suspicion is that c-k-d is adding dbus handlers and not removing
them, so the list of proxies grows without bounds, and it must be walked
every time a dbus message arrives.  That's just a hunch though, and I
haven't found the exact line of code where the root of the problem lies.
