Comment 1 for bug 1162008

I've attached a screenshot of top showing thunderbird and the ibus python script hamming a couple of processors in tandem, with the flashing unity panel and ibus-daemon not far behind. It's most annoying and, when I have my virtual machine on too, my can't cope any longer and freezes!

Note that I also have an encrypted home directory, so this could be related to bug #927515 too. Either way, I would be grateful if someone could investigate.
