nautilus 3.10.0-1 using 100% of a thread

Hello,

I've tried Googling about this problem, but I have no idea what's happening and why. Sometimes I start and after a while nautilus starts hogging one of my threads. That happens at seemingly random times, but since I only restart after an upgrade to any process that I'm too lazy to restart, I can only imagine that it happens because of that. However once I restart again, it doesn't happen again.

Now I haven't checked when it doesn't happen, so I'm not too sure if my memory usage has gone up as well. Here's a screenshot of gnome-system-monitor and htop, hopefully I've added all the details needed to figure out what's going on.

Thanks!

EDIT: Here's a (probably) better screenshot of gnome-system-monitor: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/110 … 7%3A10.png

Also, I tried to restart, but gnome-shell wouldn't do anyting, just sit there, so I had to switch to a tty and tried restarting gdm. Things are back to normal, but I'll report back if it happens again and post if anything has changed.

Same problem, just run "killall nautilus".

Hope to see it fixed soon.

But killall nautilus breaks (I'm guessing) gnome-session somehow because I can't then logout, and by extension, can't restart. After that I can't start nautilus again.

No I use it regularly and no breakages.

I'm sure gnome devs will fix it soon, I don't have the link to the bug report but on the bugzilla there was already a patch...

This happens 1-2 times a day and by killing nautilus everything goes fine.

I can confirm this. Happens since release >= 3.10.0.

I can only find these reports:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690981 # since 3.4, but still running, this is not our bug
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708648 # just high cpu usage, but still running, this is not our bug

Therefore I opened a new bug:
