[Bug 1429175] [NEW] system-config-printer brings 30% CPU usage

 

Public bug reported:

Every time I try to add a printer form the "Printers" app on Ubuntu
15.04, the CPU usage grows up to 32%.

Follow these steps to reproduce the bug:
1-Open "Printers" from the Dash
2-Press "ADD".

The CPU usage grows to 30-32%. 
I have tried with one or two printer already configured and in both cases the CPU usage grows to 30-32%. The usage goes down 4-5 mins after closing the "Printers" app or by suspending and waking up the PC.
