Public bug reported:

I have a JetFlash 620 8Gb Transcend drive. Whenever i insert it, the cpu
load gets very high. This problem persists in 10.10 and 11.04, but it
does not affect 10.04.

udiscs --monitor gives the following

..etc

where sdd is the user data partition, sr0 is a non-writeable partition
holding the security software.

Workaround: "sudo stop udev" lowers the CPU load. Seems to work fine
after that, but surely not an elegant move .

Additional info:
udisks version 1.0.2-4ubuntu1
udev version 167-0ubuntu3
