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).
