Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

package: gnome-panel

I expect it never to hang, but it hangs with time.
Usually, it happens when there's a heavy CPU load.
In addition, it slows down the system.
Probably, there's a race condition.
When deluge had a tray icon icon, the crashes happened more often.

Workaround: I have a launcher icon for "killall gnome-panel" on my desktop.
It gets restarted after it's killed.
