Since my upgrade to Ubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04.1 LTS, I had a few seconds of Gnome Shell unresponsiveness after each screen unlock. The issue completely disappeared after I closed the emojione-picker indicator.
I get similar symptoms (unresponsive shell) when I start the picker from a terminal: the indicator icon takes about 1 second to appear, then the display hangs for a few more seconds after appearance of the indicator icon - and it is even longer when I start the Python script from the freshly cloned source.
I tried to perf-trace the __main__ block, but the unresponsiveness only kicks in after the call to Gtk.main(), so my take is that GTK struggles to pre-render the menu (too many widgets?).
