Public bug reported: /usr/lib/indicator-appmenu/hud-service is frequently calling access() for the following three files:
access("<home>/.cache/indicator-appmenu/hud-usage-log.sqlite-journal", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) access("<home>/.cache/indicator-appmenu/hud-usage-log.sqlite-wal", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) access("/usr/share/indicator-appmenu/hud/app-info/multiload.hud-app-info", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) which apparently do not exist (excerpt from strace log, <home> is users home directory). For NFS mounted homes this causes a constant network traffic of ~300kB/s down and ~50kB/s up in idle state. On slower machines this causes a more than noticable CPU load (with and without NFS mounted homes).
