Public bug reported: Nautilus quickly climbs to 100% cpu usage upon login and after opening. Causes my system to shut down completely. I have a large collection of music, pictures and videos that are symlinked to my home folder. Although this should not cause any problems, it does. Killall nautilus works fine but cpu goes to 100% after opening nautilus again. This only seems to be an issue running nautilus as a user. Opening nautilus as a root user (gksudo nautilus) works fine.
