Public bug reported:

I configured the datetime indicator to display seconds. On an idle
netbook with an Intel Atom processor, the indicator-datetime-service
library uses around 7 % CPU time and the evolution-calendor-factory uses
4 % CPU time. When disabling displaying the seconds, the system load
will drop below 0.1 % CPU time.

The system load should be lower even if the seconds are displayed.
Expensive operations like querying the Evolution calender should be run
only once per minute instead of every second.
