Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-cups-manager
Sometimes, for no discernible reason, gnome-cups-icon will start using all available processor time. It's not using more memory than usual, just more CPU time. If I kill -9 it, it dies immediately and CPU usage returns to normal.
There doesn't appear to be a way to trigger this, but it will happen every so often. Now, for instance, the icon isn't even active in the panel, and I haven't printed anything in some time; I didn't do anything specific that I can discern.
Is there a way to attach a debugger or tracing program to this process? I'm leaving it running for now so that I can diagnose it if anyone has suggestions as to how.
I am running gnome-cups-manager 0.31-1.1ubuntu13 on Ubuntu Dapper.
