The same happens to me - everything fine until I plug an external HD
into the laptop - and then the following start to eat CPU cycles:

gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor
gdu-notification-daemon

If I stop these (it was an act of desperation) then update-notifier
starts to eat CPU cycles

I am using 11.10
On the machine before clean install of 11.10 - from 10.?? - no problems

I also have 11.10 on the USB HD - and when I use this to boot a Lenovo
laptop or an HP laptop - again the CPU use rises to close to 100% - with
the same processes misbehaving

If I plug the same HDD into my 10.04 system then - no problems

I am happy to do more digging for information - but it seems few other
folks are suffering this problem

Title:
  gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100% CPU on startup

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Every time the system is booted up gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100%
  of the CPU for multiple minutes, even so there is no good reason why
  it should do that. This bug report indicates that it might be related
  to the number of USB devices attached:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575381

  And I can confirm that, I have multiple USB HDDs with a dozens of LVM
  partitions.
