Still can't replicate, but can add some discovery:
If sudo has been used in the session before and a password is not
needed, system-monitor correctly identifies updatedb as the process-
name. If a password is needed, sudo is shown as the name. The PID
displayed by top, ps and system-monitor are the same, so they still
point to the same process, there is no hidden one. Also, the reported
CPU-Usage is the same for the sudo process in system-monitor and
updatedb in top.
Still, the name confusion issue should be reported upstream, can you
file a report on bugzilla.gnome.org?
** Changed in: gnome-system-monitor (Ubuntu)
