Hello Steve,

Again, thanks a lot for your time and detail on this report.

I've just tested ubuntu-sso-login version 1.0.3-0ubuntu1 and 1.0.4-0ubuntu1 (you can get the later enabling the maverick-proposed repository, for instructions you can read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed) and I can confirm that in the former the service presents a 10/s wakeup rate and with the latter the wakeups are 0/s when not being used.

Can you please confirm this yourself?

On the other hand, answering the question about why the service doesn't shutdown itself: currently we have no way of deciding if the service is being used or not. This service opens a GTK UI for the user to login or register, and that window can remain opened as long as the user wants, so the backend layer can't decide when no one is accessing the service.

Regards, Natalia.
