Bug#730386: more precisions

I found one guilty. The sensors extension is responsible of the high cpu 
usage.

Please note that the cpu usage does not get high as soon as we activate 
this extension. It takes time, and the cpu usage progressively gets 
higher and higher.

Deactivating sensors extension does not resolve the issue: the cpu usage 
still gets higher and higher. The only solution to solve this bug is to 
restart the session.

I highly think that no program at all should allow extensions to consume 
all the cpu times. So I still believe that the bug has a lot of concerns 
with the gnome-shell program.

Also note that I have 6 gnome-shell processes running (from htop), and 
only a single one (always the same process) will consume the cpu.

Also note that this did not happend with gnome-shell 3.6.
