Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.

I found the cause and solution. The ~/.cache/thumbnails directory was for some unknown reason not owned by my user. I fixed that and now nautilus appears to be behaving normally. Apparently is was caught in a loop trying to update thumbnails but could not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1565359 Title: high cpu usage when idle Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If I leave nautilus open to my home folder or most any folder, it uses 25% of the cpu according to top.
