[Bug 1363217] Re: gvfs samba mounts cause periodic nautilus and open/save file dialog freezes

 

I believe this bug also causes my laptop to permanently suspend
sometimes. If I have gnucash open which is directly stored over my samba
share, then put the laptop to sleep, sometimes I can never fully recover
the laptop (Linux Mint 17.1 64bit cinnamon). It doesn't allow me to log
back in, and I can't even use the "Magic SysRq" REISUB combination to
reboot. Since switching to NFS I have not had these issues.

Title:
  gvfs samba mounts cause periodic nautilus and open/save file dialog
  freezes

Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After mounting samba shares through gvfs-smbd, e.g. by typing
  smb://server/share in the nautilus file manager, I experience
  occasional freezes in nautilus lasting anywhere up to 20-30 seconds.
  During this time it's not possible to browse folders or open new
  nautilus instances. Likewise, file->open and file->save dialogs will
  be frozen as well. It appears that any file browsing operation is
  being held pending re-establishment of connection to the samba share.
  The freezes happen maybe once every hour or so.
