Title:
  polkitd, dbus-daemon CPU usage high, system very slugish

Status in “policykit-1” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04, polkitd uses 60+% CPU and system
  is VERY sluggish. Killing polkitd "fixes" the problem. This only
  happens at boot. I've left the machine idle for 10 minutes, and still
  polkitd and dbus-daemon are taking lots of CPU.

  Sometimes NetworkManager as well takes a lot of CPU. Again, after
  killing polkitd after boot-up, the problem goes away. polkitd gets
  restarted and the system is responsive.

  I didn't have this problem in 13.10 and previous releases.
