Public bug reported:

In normal case, Arale consumes ~310mA (brightness 1160) when stay in all
other system settings pages. But when navigate to either Updates or
Storage page, power meter readings raise to 700mA (brightness 1160)
immediately and never go down again until screen dim (brightness 60), at
which Arale still takes ~600mA while other pages take ~110mA.

STR:
1. disable idle lock at "System Settings" / "Security & Privacy" / "Lock when 
idle" => Never
2. navigate to "System Settings" / "Updates" and check power meter readings 
before and after screen dim
3. navigate to "System Settings" / "About this phone" / "Storage" and check 
power meter readings before and after screen dim

Expect:
Power meter readings go down to 310mA before screen dim and 110mA after.

Actual:
1. Updates page:
power meter readings stay in ~700mA before screen dim and ~600mA after. `top` 
reveals that system-settings process takes 25% cpu time, unity8 takes ~35%, 
unity-system-compositor takes 12% constantly.

2. Storage page: power meter readings stay in ~740mA before screen dim
and ~620mA after. `top` reveals that system-settings process takes >40%
cpu time, unity8 takes 33%, unity-system-compositor takes 12.5%
constantly.
