Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.30.2-4
Severity: normal

As I click on the radio button on "Panel Properties-> Background -> Solid
Color", gnome-panel goes over 90% cpu usage. I've noticed the same
behaviour with "Panel Properties-> Background -> Background image"
option. If there is any applets on the panel the will use high cpu % too.
With "Panel Properties-> Background -> None" everythings works fine.
I'm not sure but I think that the problem raised after this upgrade:
