Hi Upower Maintainers,

the upowerd seems to eat a lot of CPU on computers with connected iphones.

This ist only an example:
 2212 root      20   0   86148  10568   9240 S  60,6  0,1 175:21.27 upowerd
It goes up more sometimes.

Please see here too:

As in the link, I have this on a Lenovo laptop - here a X1 Carbon G4.

Kind regards, Jan

Hi Jan

Is this old issue still reproducible with a recent version of upower?
