Bug Description

The mate-indicator-appelet-complete uses an increasing amount of CPU% reached 5% after a couple of days without a reboot. It goes up about 2% each day. I can reset the usage by running killall mate-indicator- in terminal. Then choosing the reload option on the resulting popup message.

I don't reboot often so I use the killall every couple of days.

I have the following apps in my MATE-indicator:

sound, messages, Network, Livepatch, BOINCTasks.js, My weather indicator, Caffeine, gpodder, variety, printers

I am new to reporting bugs, please let me know if you require more information like system info etc.

I have since removed any non original items from the MATE-indicator panel and will report back if the CPU% usage continues to climb

The CPU usage still climbs the same way with only the stock indicators loaded.
