@Colin - I think this is the same issue described in bug 1199877. The LO
menus are included in the global menu bar; to achieve this they are
treated as indicators. There is a leak somewhere in the indicator-
handling code. A workaround is to remove the indicator-appmenu package,
which has the side effect of removing the global menu bar functionality.

The u-p-s heap grows apparently unbounded (I've seen it up to 400MB!).
GTK maintains a list of signal handlers related to the indicators , and
it performs linears searches through that list. It appears that
something is not removing handlers from that list. I haven't had time to
debug the issue beyond that.

There's a backtrace at https://pastebin.canonical.com/97128/ , and more
detail in bug 1199877.

Title:
  unity-panel-service consumes 100% of my CPU for 8 seconds to while
  waiting for a global menu to open

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When opening a libreoffice calc menu nothing happens for 8 seconds.
  Using "top" one can observe that unity-panel-service is pegging one of
  my CPUs at 100%.   This is 100% repeatable.  Just start libreoffice,
  open the menu.  Opening the menu thereafter is often faster. But from
  a clean start of libreoffice one can always trigger this issue.

  Attached is a video showing the delay in opening a menu.  I'm running
  in a 2.5 Ghz i5 CPU, so 8 seconds equates to 20 billion clock cycles
  to open a menu.
