The issue occurs when you have a remote file system mounted. It does not matter if you are actively accessing the file system.
I am running Ubuntu 12.10. I was connecting to a mac share via ssh. Nautilus had mounted the drive for my current session. ^My two cents -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/951585 Title: gvfsd-afp consumes 100% of processor cycles To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/951585/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
