Fresh install Ubuntu 14.04, and actually I do had one disk (although not system disk) completely full a few days ago.
Today, without any apparent reason, disk I/O indicator LED not going off anymore (I don't know for how long) and system disk is an SSD. With a spinning disk this would've been serious thrashing. top told me ~20% CPU from gvfsd-metadata and iotop was reporting >1500K/s from that process. I simply immediately shut down. After reboot: silence. Yet, after reading some posts, I rm wiped the ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata folder. For now, that solved it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517021 Title: gvfsd-metadata causes 100% CPU usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/517021/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
