Below are the steps I've used to resolve my problem for now.
path to files = /home/{user}/.local/share/zeitgeist/
Short version:
* I overwrote /home/dbyrd/.local/share/zeitgeist/* then shutdown my PC via
the menu. Upon boot the CPU issue was absent.
* zeitgeist daemon cpu usage now equals 0.0 %
More detail:
1. The sqlliteman app (sqlite manager - in ubuntu software center) was used to
open an old backup copy of activity.sqlite (activity.sqlite.bck). The backup
sqlite database was easily opened and seemed functional. Next I tried to open
the activity.sqlite database and I received a corrupt file warning from the
sqlliteman app.
2. I backed-up the entire local zeitgeist folder for posterity.
3. I restored my zeitgiest folder overwriting all files in the folder(s). See
path above.
4. Full Shutdown. Cold boot.
5. The symptoms of the bug are currently absent. My current zeitgeist daemon
cpu usuage is 0.0 % via htop. Previously htop reported the daemon at 85%-99%
CPU for hours on end.
I hope this helps.
