Gedit started using excessive CPU Only since I upgraded to Trusty, 14.04.
I am using LUBUNTU but use Gedit,and i have use it for years on Lububtu,with no problem, but now, the CPU runs away,
but If I hit Ctrl + S or save it calms down, I am on an older Dell GX280 and when I edit in Gedit the fan begins to go really fast, as soon as I type or paste a character or line, but as soon as I save it, the CPU usage slows down to at least better , right now it is using about 12% CPU , but, I can close Gedit and it drops to 0 to 1 % CPU usage, on average.
I was using Gedit on 13.10 with NO problems until I upgraded this box to Trusty.

I hope this is the right place to comment, if not, please delete this (admins).
I will keep searching to see if anyone else has had a similar experience since upgrading to 14.04.
