Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

gvfsd-gphoto2 seems to not correctly free up memory used after loaded
and it is necessary to unmount the camera to free the memory.

When my Canon EOS 500D camera is mounted using gvfsd-gphoto2 in Nautilus
everything seems to be OK until I enter a folder with photos and videos.
gvfsd-gphoto2 then loads previews of all files in that folder, but it
seems that it doesn't free up the memory used correctly because it uses
hundreds of MBs of memory or even more. When RAM is filled, it then
allocates space in swap. Neither RAM nor swap space is released until
the camera is unmounted, closing the Nautilus window doesn't help.

I am using Ubuntu 10.10, latest gvfs package from the repository version
1.6.4-0ubuntu1.1

It is possible that there is a relation with the bug 673137
