Bug Description
Process in question:
6832 ? Rl 2430:25 /usr/lib/
htop lists its RSS as 404M (20% of the memory on this machine, more memory than Firefox is using) and has one core pegged (100% CPU). This has resulted in a temperature increase on the machine as well. Sort of ironic that the process to monitor the battery is the thing that's killing it.
