[Bug 1513450] Re: higher than expected cpu for unity8

 

Some observations:

* For me, this happens only when the Bluetooth page in systemsettings is opened.
* Doesn't matter if windowed or staged mode
* Happens on all devices

turns out the Bluetooth Page in systemsettings is animating 3
ActivityIndicators even when they are not visible.

Not sure how that causes unity8's CPU usage to be that high, but the
linked ubuntu-system-settings branch improves the situation a lot.

However, given that the ActivityIndicators are invisible, we probably
should investigate why they keep on triggering rendering updates.

Adding ubuntu-system-settings, qtmir and qtubuntu.
