I just noticed this on an Ubuntu 13.04 system with updated-manager 1:0.186.2:

 4089 dank 30 10 552m 135m 50m R 99.4 3.5 5:03.08 update-manager

It's not just ten seconds, it's been running for five minutes.

There's an update for update-manager, guess I'll install that manually and see if the problem recurs.
