SUMMARY
kcalc process always takes nearly 100% of a CPU thread when it's running, so
that the laptop turns hot and loud. The problem is only observed with kcalc,
demanding software runs relatively quietly.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start kcalc
2. leave the process running for a short while
3. close the window normally or kill the process

OBSERVED RESULT
laptop fans turn loud, top shows 95%+ CPU usage right after start
kcalc works and quits as expected otherwise
the CPU usage returns to normal after kcalc is closed

EXPECTED RESULT
kcalc should not take this amount of resources
