Is there anything else I can do about this problem?  Should I file a
bug about it so it doesn't get lost in the black hole of past emails?

Actually, because I kept waiting for it to do something, it ended up
being 14MB. :-P  I posted the first bit of the file here:
http://pastebin.ca/111838.  It looks pretty repetitive, but I'd
happily run it again and/or post something else.

It will have written the data to a file called 'rb-strace' in the
directory in which you ran that command.  Could you put this file on a
website somewhere or send it to me directly?  It'll probably be a few
hundred kB, so it's best not to inflict that on the whole list.

I haven't forgotten about this, it just took me a while to reproduce
the problem.  I've even had file monitoring enabled.  There's nothing
different with my system than there has been, but it seems to be laggy
tonight.  So here goes.

Actually, strace didn't produce much:

# strace -p `pidof rhythmbox` -o rb-strace
Process 5937 attached - interrupt to quit
Process 5937 detached

And ls had a bit more, but still not much:

~ ls -l /proc/`pidof rhythmbox`/fd
total 30

Any more info you could provide on this would be very helpful; it's
rather tedious when it happens.  (Restarting doesn't help.)

Thanks very much,

It sounds like this might be something to do with file monitoring.  You
could try disabling file monitoring (the 'watch my library for new
files' option in the library preferences) to see if that's the case.

Getting some strace output might also be helpful.  If you could run
'strace -p `pidof rhythmbox` -o rb-strace' for a few seconds while this
is happening and put the resulting file somewhere (please don't send it
to the whole list) we'd be able to see what was going on.  Output from
'ls -l /proc/`pidof rhythmbox`/fd' might also be required to figure out
what's happening.
