I see the same thing with the same version of unity-services, 4.16.0-0ubuntu2.
As long as the sound menu in dropped-down, unity-panel-service CPU use goes up to max and my processor temperature reaches levels I've never seen it reach before. I don't know if it could possibly be related to the apps I have listed in the sound menu: Banshee, Rhythmbox and Spotify. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/859433 Title: high cpu usage of unity-panel-service when indicator-sound is opened To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/859433/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
