Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

I'm on Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 Beta with all the latest updates. I'm
currently having issues with system stability. After messing around with
System Monitor, I noticed that when the freezes all occur, the process
gvfs-metadata is using around 95% of my Core2 Quad CPU, and the process
is quickly increasing in memory, until there is no more left. I have
seen gvfs-metadata alone use up 1.8GB of RAM. When it can no longer take
up any more ram, the system slows down and freezes up, sometimes
automatically terminating the process after 5 minutes, only to randomly
start it again later, causing the issue again. Killing the process
results in it automatically being restarted, and it once again starts to
take up memory. The issue begins to occur shortly after gnome finishes
loading, but it does not occur in an xterm session. When the system
locks up when this process freezes it, I have noticed that Alt-
PrintScr-K does not return me to gdm, but rather, there is corrupt
graphics at the top of the screen, and the system needs to be forcefully
restarted.
