Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run Baobab
2. Have it index some directory
3. Wait for it to finish
4. Open 'top' in a terminal
5. Focus the Baobab window, look at the CPU usage of the /usr/bin/baobab --gapplication-service process
6. Focus some other window, look at the CPU usage of the /usr/bin/baobab --gapplication-service process
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the pattern becomes clear

Expected results:

CPU usage is low in both step 5 and 6.

Actual results:
