I use gentoo (hardened profile) with hardened kernel. polkit uses a lot of cpu with hardened kernel, with non-hardened kernel no problem. useful information: https://paste.pound-python.org/show/EYDRILi7A9LMBoaXX6gI/ screenshot: http://imgur.com/sE8lVl2 perf report: https://paste.pound-python.org/show/6HPsU7IEg2EasgpedU1F/
I confirm. When I got 100% cpu I just do "killall -HUP polkitd" to restart it. I have no idea how to force this bug... Can say I went with version down in gentoo packages but it's happening again and again... so this is not only one relase bug.
