Also happens for me under a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.10 x64 (Quetzal) connecting to my MacBook running OS 10.7 (Lion). Even after all file transfer or browsing activity has stopped, both processors are pegged at 100% until I unmount the share. The last time it happened, I couldn't get the share to unmount and had to force-quit gvfs.

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. Have experienced this issue on my Acer Aspire 5742 and Compaq Mini 110 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/951585/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
