Almost certainly what you're thinking of (or have heard about) is the
NameOwnerChanged problem:
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183

It's definitely something we should fix (and the system was designed
to support avoid wakeups), but it's certainly not as bad as every
process waking up on every message; just when something joins or
leaves the bus.
