** Tags added: performance
** Summary changed:
- gnome-shell hogs cpu
+ gnome-shell high CPU in activities
Closer examination reveals the following:
1. In "normal" times, gnome-shell cpu usage could vary between around 7% and go
up to 50%
2. The cpu usage figure keeps going up and down frequently
3. However, the problem starts when I press the Left Win key and enter the
activities overview/search mod
