Being a newcomer, here's my perspective: 

I must admit that dealing with changelogs
(editing them, fixing them, making sure both changelog in
file and in commit message are in sync) is a significant portion
of the time. Fixing / improving the code is usually ~20% of the total
time in my case (another time-consumer are tests, that's different story). 
Indeed, I might be exception. 

That being said, this is the highest "overhead" of all projects I work
on - not many, though. 

My 2c.
