I confirm the problem.  Not sure if mine was also induced by .gvfs but
the effects are the same.  Baobab tells me my ~ folder uses 40G when the
real number is three times that.

Title:
  Disk Usage Analyzer produce incorrect numbers on home directories

Status in “gnome-utils” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Disk Usage Analyzer (/usr/bin/baobab) produce incorrect numbers on
  home directories. When the tool is run from the command line it
  outputs an error message saying:

  glibtop: statvfs '/home/kasperd/.gvfs' failed

  ** (baobab:31935): WARNING **: error in dir /home/kasperd: Error
  stating file '/home/kasperd/.gvfs': Transport endpoint is not
  connected

  I suspect that after encountering this error baobab does not scan
  remaining subdirectories and thus leaving out the directories
  responsible for the majority of the space consumption.
