I've identified the cause.

Would you believe it. I was caused by having seconds displayed in the clock. Unchecking seconds stopped the high cpu activity as evolution-calendar-factory went to sleep

I'm now interested in the bug fix!

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Attached screen shot from "Top" showing constant cpu usage from evolution-calandar-factory.

Double checked this and it does not occur in Ubuntu 13.04

I've got the same problem. Ubuntu Gnome 13.10, Gnome 3.10

My clock doesn't show seconds, none of the settings in Gnome Tweak Tool -> top bar help.
That is no fix for me!!

Disabling Calendars or going offline in Evolution doesn't help either.

[R_volkmann (r-volkmann)]

I have a workaround:

I can't uninstall evolution-data-server, as Gnome-shell depends on it.
It doesnt help to kill the process as it starts again immediately.

But its possible to stop it.

killall -s STOP evolution-calendar-factory

This seems to be fixed now in 13.10.

Has a fix been released?
