Re-reading my answer, I doubt it is clear what I meant. What I mean is:
No, the issue is not occurring anymore. I have been using Nautilus in
the form of GNOME Files, and have copied large amounts of data
frequently. Noted that I use Debian Stable, so I guess it is save to say
it will not occur in Ubuntu.
Hope that is a bit more clear ;)

Title:
Nautilus uses a lot of heap memory coping large amounts of data
Status in Nautilus:
New
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
While copying a lot of data (>250GB), Nautilus uses up a lot of
memory. This memory is not given back to the system at any time.
Depending on the amount of copying Nautilus uses from 800MB up to 3GB.
Now using Ubuntu alpha 6 with Gnome 2.28, but this problemed also
showed on my old install (Arch Linux Gnome 2.26)
I attached a printscreen of the memory in the .png. Memory in use that
time: 2.4GB. Amount of data copied (not cutted) was about 750GB.
