Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

I have a large (>30 GB) ecryptfs partition that I do backups onto. When I mount it, mount.ecryptfs starts eating my memory at an alarming rate. I usually end up doing killall -9 mount.ecryptfs when this happens, and the partition seems to have mounted fine.

This is Ubuntu 9.04 with ecryptfs-utils 73-0ubuntu6.
