Tell what missing information you need and I'm all yours, because this is still present in 13.10 amd64 (and is annoying). I tried opening "Show open files" for some processes; monitor hangs on Transmission and Firefox with ~200 tabs, partially on Dropbox (by partially I mean it hangs for a while -- main window goes gray -- then "Open files" window is refreshed, processess input (like srolling; main window goes normal), but is irresponsive and immediately freezes again; loop.

Sometimes this freezes the system monitor. So far I've only been able to find that it alway's hangs with transmission, even when its not active and has only 32 fd's open. On the other hand, firefox-bin with over 80 fd's doesn't hang system-monitor. To reproduce: Start transmission, start gnome-system-monitory, go the the processes tab, choose "show open files" for Transmission and observe the hang. Note: I am aware of another bug rapport similar to this, regarding skype. This one seems to be closed due to a lack of information, and it is also more than 3 years old, so I opened a new rapport.
