Does the fact that I see this behavior in *Trusty* (see comment [url=https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1409032/comments/33]33[/url] mean that I'm experiencing this same bug, or is it another issue altogether for which I should open a separate bug?
Please notice that (as stated in comment 33) I've actually purged all samba packages from this system, the only things left behind are some samba libraries, and yet the gvfsd-dnssd process would randomly start for no reason that I can thin kof and load the CPU to the max. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1409032 Title: gvfsd-smb: very high CPU utilisation Status in samba: Unknown Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in samba package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gvfs package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Example: I use Virtualbox and mount a .vdi on an SMB server. Using gvfsd-smb (browsing within Gnome to find the share), gvfsd-smb uses up to 50% CPU which slows down the entire system when accessing the network share. Mounting using sudo ($ sudo mount -t smbfs -o guest,nounix,noperm //server/share /media/share) so that cifs is used uses around 8% CPU. The difference is dramatic! If I didn't have sudo access my machine would grind to a halt when trying to use the remote share.
