Errrr ... no.  The upgrade got iBus working and then it crashed after 
hogging my CPU for a while when running as version 10.10.  When it came 
back from the crash I mentioned, it no longer hogged cycles.  The fix 
might have been in a subsequent daily download and I just didn't realize it.

Sorry for the confusion.
