Crazy Event Spam?

I reported this to Blizzard but was wondering if others have been noticing this:

I've been researching some performance issues that I and other people have been having lately. Running /etrace has given some crazy results:

Friend's destruction Warlock:
Block of 12 ACTION_SLOT_CHANGED events every 5 seconds. This is just while idling in the Garrison. Causes horrible hitches in framerate.

My destruction Warlock:
No event spam at all.

Wife's hunter:
Had a crazy series of SHIPMENT_UPDATE events every 0.02 seconds. Went on for quite a while, then suddenly stopped.

My Frost Mage:
7x BAG_UPDATE_COOLDOWN
ACTIONBAR_UPDATE_COOLDOWN
SPELL_UPDATE_COOLDOWN
This was every few seconds. Again, just idling in the Garrison. Ported to Dalaran, Spam disappeared. Ported to Stormshield, and the 7 BAG events dropped to 1 but the block kept repeating. Went back to Garrison and it started again. I removed all my gear and put everything in the bank, still got a constant stream of BAG update events.

Clearly something is going wrong here.
