Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-system-
I have noticed many times that CPU usage will be at 100% on the gnome-system-
The top command does displays the process taking up the CPU.
I don't have specific steps to reproduce, but the un-shown process is usually a background processes such as updatedb. I run the system monitor panel applet and try to investigate when my system slows down because something is using the processor, so I am bothered by this bug often. I have noticed this behaviour in Hardy, Intrepid, and Jaunty.

2. View -> All processes.
3. Open terminal, execute: "sudo updatedb"
4. Confirm updatedb is running (ps).
