I just stumbled across this bug myself and I found the cause. The gvfsd-
sftp uses sftp to connect to the server. I tried to connect directly
this sftp but with no success. The error reported was "Received message
too long $NUMBER". Further investigations revealed it was a problem with
the severs shell configuration. For the sftp on ubuntu uses ssh to
connect to the server on some shells text is emitted to the console
(Something like "Hello..." or whatever even if it is a non-interactive
session). This causes the error above with sftp. In my case I had
"screen -r" in my shell option without checking if the session was
interactive. After correcting this, sftp worked fine and so did gvfsd-
sftp. No more 100% CPU after this correction. It's still a bug
obviously.
