My system has 2GB of RAM and 4GB of swap. Nautilus is taking almost all of them. Top says 1781M virt and 1.2G res. This happens as I´m doing a backup of my external USB drive into another USB drive. Around 1.000.000 files, with music, videos, text, and thousands and thousands of pictures. Copying from Ext3 to Ext4 partition, with a simple copy and paste.
Copy speed decreased with time, starting around 16-17MB/sec now around 11MB/sec. Serious bug. Copy & paste shouldn´t destroy a machine no matter how big the amount of files/total size. =( On a different level, in the middle of the copy, as there was a Lost+Found folder in both partitions, the copy process was stopped waiting for an answer (Mix, replace, abort?). The question should have been at the beginning, not in the middle of the copy, as the right to thing to do is to start copying and leave or do something else. -- Nautilus memory leak on regular usage for long hours https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417589 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
