chronos-timetracker High CPU usage

Expected Behavior

It's just timer. It shouldn't use more than 0.1% CPU.

Actual Behavior

It usually uses more than 10% CPU. Also the CPU usage builds up in time, I need to restart Chronos every day in order to keep it around 10%. If I don't restart the app often, it can easily use more than 25% CPU.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Start Chronos
Start tracking time
Watch the system resources to be eaten up by this app

It's 4.2.0. I will profile the app for you once the usage is high

CPU usage is ~1 full core:

...though I'd say I can run chronos for the whole week without increasing CPU consumption. That's the reason why I'm kinda afraid to upgrade to 4.2 =)

Also RAM at ~0.3GB? Uh oh...
