Oh, and i ran a strace-tracking, it showed me exactly the same as your log. It reads all the thumbnails.
if you look at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150483 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings- daemon/+bug/37643 i think there lies the problem: in gnome-settings-daemon, they implemented a "housekeeping" plugin: "- Added a new "housekeeping" plugin to set limits on the size and age of the thumbnail cache" I think this housekeeping mechanism just goes crazy and checks my 32.000 thumbs every boottime for consistency. Perhaps someone could check if thats it? Should we reopen the old bug because their fix braught up this problem? ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #150483 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150483 -- gnome-settings-daemon extensive disk usage https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505085 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
