Not so much CPU usage here, but leak is confirmed (I have the issue since the release of 13.10 ...), at the end of they day memory usage (according to top) is about 6-10% on a machine with 2Gbyte RAM. If I kill the process, it relaunches and uses much less memory, below 1%, but again it sightly increasing with time. So I have to kill it about some times within a day to be able to work without heavy swapping. However as I've told, not so much CPU is consumed here, I have no problem with that at least. 13.10 on x86 32 bit.

Using shortcuts is enough and faster to reproduce this bug (I've always used Ctrl+A and Ctrl+Shift+A). Memory usage of unity- panel-service increases steadily and it uses a lot of CPU shortly after activating the menu items in a short time. Regression potential: check that the menus are stable/working as they should --------- Just going about my business on Ubuntu Raring amd64 on an x230 and I heard the fan kick into action. top showed me that unity-panel-service was consuming all the free cycles on one of my CPUs. I killed it before my machine overheated, so I didn't attach a debugger to see why it was totally pegging out a CPU. I'm not sure if this adds any context, but I was using a LibreOffice spreadsheet and I could not insert a table because the menu had lost it's mind, and then I observed the overly loaded CPU a very short while after that.
