This is actually a very old issue (https://esite.ch/2012/04/saving-power-with-diodon-0-8-0/) when using primary selection clipboard GTK didn't trigger owner-change signal https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk3-Clipboards.html#GtkClipboard-owner-change

A workaround to this was to run a timer which periodically checks the primary selection clipboard. That's why you see the high CPU utilisation.

As this has been a while back I have now tested it again and it actually seems to work now with newer GTK versions without the timer.

A patch is in the making https://github.com/diodon-dev/diodon/pull/22
