Title:
gvfsd-metadata causes 100% CPU usage

** Description changed:
Binary package hint: gvfs
+ My disk space was really full at one moment, no byte left free. People say,
that does corrupt the files in the ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata folder, so the
gvfsd-metadata can't read it without being screwed up.
+ Workaround: run rm -rf
Yes, mucku
Your solution worked in my laptop. It seems that ~/.local/share/gvfs-
metadata/ folder contain metadata from network that I have connected
with. The problems is, I only connected to those network once.
Nautilus/gvfsd seems to crawl any network (specially samba network) when
I'm
Wow, that tip with
rm -rf ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata
actually helped.
After reboot gvfs-metadata is not really coming up anymore in top.
Thank you a lot. That was extremely annoying. And as I remember... I was really
filling up my disk with a lot of data.

How about the rest of you guys?
If it fixes your problem too, then we should close this bug report. If your
problem persists maybe open a new one for your specific case. What is the
protocol for handling this?

folder, so the gvfsd-metadata can't read it without being screwed up. So
the content of this folder should be deleted: rm -rf ~/.local/share
/gvfs-metadata
Hmm I had hoped it would be fixed in 10.04. So upgrading might not be the cure
if this still persists in Lucid.
So is the problem connected to libc ?

I have also the problem after booting and then sometimes.
I have also errors in dmesg:
[ 149.466717] __ratelimit: 24 callbacks suppressed
[ 149.466723] gvfsd-metadata[2336]: segfault at 7fff955a3ff8 ip
7f2ebe806665 sp 7fff955a4000 error 6 in
libc-2.11.1.so[7f2ebe78f000+178000]
[
The problem persists after an upgrade to lucid (64-bits).
It occurs after copying a few thousand files.
It makes the system highly unusable and hot.
