After the Jan. 19th steam update (http://store.steampowered.com/news/15512/), steam hangs after you exit, with 100% cpu utilization.

stdout:

Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1421694684)
process 884: The last reference on a connection was dropped without closing the connection. This is a bug in an application. See dbus_connection_unref() documentation for details.
Most likely, the application was supposed to call dbus_connection_close(), since this is a private connection.

It always produces that .dmp file when you exit.

Appears to be fixed in the Jan. 30th beta update.

Hi, I have similar issue. Steam hangs up after exit but fully utilizes only one thread - not the whole processor. It makes games unplayable though. I got i3-3220, gtx 660, external usb soundcard (audiotrak prodigy cube) and windows 8.1

Nothing extracted yet.
