I was doing nothing more than browsing the web with firefox and it happened. I'm running gnome-shell on Ubuntu 11.10 and the only two apps I had open were gedit and firefox. I heard my proc fan spin up so I checked my process list and found gvfsd-afp using up 100% of one core.

For no reason gvfsd-afp starts up. Cooling fan kicks in, system becomes laggy. Easily cured using system monitor and killing the process. Someone on the Ubuntu Forum asked if I have a Mac on the network and the answer is yes, an iMac and there are shares on that machine I can access.
