Comment 2 for bug 1387810

in image smoke testing for touch we have a test called "systemsettle" it checks the idle state of the system before and after a test run by iterating over the "top" values (it doesnt actually use top but reads directly from /proc) ten times ... if the average idle value for these ten runs is not above 97.5% the test is considered a failure.

on the krillin device the systemsettle test constantly fails (while it passes on mako). looking through the logs we found that upowerd, indicator-power, powerd and specifically dbus-daemon seem to always be the top consumers causing the failure of the test. for now we decided to give the test a little more wiggle room by lowering the threshold by 1% but i think it is very valuable to get the described behavior of this bug fixed in the RTM touch image which IMHO will likely make the dbus noise be lower overall.

Thus this bug should be on the critical fixes list (the so called "olli's list") for RTM.
