Title:
gvfsd-metadata causes 100% CPU usage
Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gvfs package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gvfs
My disk space was really full at one moment, no byte left free. People say, that does corrupt the files in the ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata folder, so the gvfsd-metadata can't read it without being screwed up.
Workaround: run "rm -rf ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata"
Expected results:
gvfsd-metadata should be able to handle the no space left situation.
--- Original description ---
After installing 9.10 Ubuntu 64bit browsing and opening folder in nautilus or Gnome-commander take several minutes when there are many files in it e.g. 10.000. Interestingly Midnight-commander does not have this problem. Opening such folders does not hang with MC.
Using "top" i can see that "gvfsd-metadata" is using 100% CPU and when i kill it the computer stops "hanging". I am using the 32bit version of Karmic too and there is no such Problem (although tested on a different computer).
Please fix this because it is highly annyoing. Right now i am killing
it every 20s with the watch command to be able to work at all.
