Public bug reported:
I noticed that Nautilus seemed sluggish after updating to 12.10
yesterday. Clicks in the window may take a moment to register and the
right click menu takes a few seconds to draw. This happens in nautilus
windows and on the desktop, but I have not seen this behaviour in any
other windows.
I checked nautilus in the system-monitor and found that it was eating an
excesive amount of memory (14.1/16 gb) and 72% of one cpu-core
constantly. The memory starts out low at ~300mb ram and creeps up from
there.
Ubuntu 12.10
nautilus:
Installed: 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4
Candidate: 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4
Version table:
*** 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
I've not filed an Ubuntu bug before and am somewhat unfamiliar with the
process, so please let me know if there are reports or commands I can
run that might be of more use.
Thanks.
