Comment 107 for bug 148454

"My personal recommendation is to do one thing about this "bug" -- nothing."

I disagree. The insane amount of threads spawned by consolekit slows down sorting of the red-black tree in CFS (default scheduler in Ubuntu) AND eats up unnecessary resources (a few megs of RAM, and probably some cpu). Actually the threads themselves are unnecessary. It IS a bug, and it should be fixed since we are practically forced to use consolekit -- remove it and you have an unstable system.
