Created attachment 149793 [details] Backtrace The bug was reported on launchpad here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/492810 The bug report is: After some hours i'm downloading with ktorrent, or azureus, or Trasmission (i've tried almost all of them) nautilus suddenly goes 100% and stays there 'till i reboot or shut down the process. I'm using ubuntu 9.10 64 bit version but i experienced this problem since ubuntu 8.04, i tried even 32 bit versions but the problem pops up nonetheless. I' m not a computer genius so if you need more info just ask (it's better if you give me instructions because i'm not familiar with debugging) I am attaching the backtrace and screenshots.

Is this bug fixed? Or is there any plan that this bug will be fixed? With my dual core cpus, i see same high cpu usage for nautilus averaging around 30% all the time. even if my system is idle. If this bug is stucked in lack of info, i am up here to provide any more debug info required. mohahmad@moheed-laptop:~$ /usr/bin/nautilus --version GNOME nautilus 2.28.1 mohahmad@moheed-laptop:~$ file /usr/bin/nautilus /usr/bin/nautilus: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, stripped mohahmad@moheed-laptop:~$ which nautilus /usr/bin/nautilus mohahmad@moheed-laptop:~$ top top - 02:39:59 up 1:19, 3 users, load average: 2.71, 2.51, 2.31 Tasks: 200 total, 2 running, 198 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 37.8%us, 7.5%sy, 0.9%ni, 51.1%id, 2.3%wa, 0.4%hi, 0.1%si, 0.0%st Mem: 2060588k total, 1374212k used, 686376k free, 85628k buffers Swap: 4200988k total, 0k used, 4200988k free, 596584k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 2807 mohahmad 20 0 251m 164m 24m S 27 8.2 23:51.07 nautilus 20 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 2 0.0 1:08.54 kacpi_notify 1695 root 20 0 257m 44m 10m S 2 2.2 3:17.00 Xorg 2805 mohahmad 20 0 29448 20m 6676 S 2 1.0 0:23.60 compiz.real 1 root 20 0 2620 1584 1136 S 0 0.1 0:01.35 init 2 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 kthreadd 3 root RT -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 migration/0 4 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.05 ksoftirqd/0 5 root RT -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 watchdog/0 6 root RT -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.02 migration/1 7 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.02 ksoftirqd/1 8 root RT -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 watchdog/1 9 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.26 events/0 10 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.02 events/1 11 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 cpuset 12 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 khelper 13 root 15 -5 0 0 0 S 0 0.0 0:00.00 netns mohahmad@moheed-laptop:~$ top top - 02:40:08 up 1:19, 3 users, load average: 2.52, 2.48, 2.30 Tasks: 201 total, 2 running, 199 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 31.7%us, 7.1%sy, 0.0%ni, 61.1%id, 0.0%wa, 0.2%hi, 0.0%si, 0.0%st Mem: 2060588k total, 1372932k used, 687656k free, 85644k buffers Swap: 4200988k total, 0k used, 4200988k free, 596728k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 2807 mohahmad 20 0 245m 160m 24m S 43 8.0 23:54.79 nautilus 18091 mohahmad 20 0 21444 8784 5908 R 11 0.4 0:00.32 evince-thumbnai Do let me know. -M
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
