Since the other bug that I commented on was marked as a duplicate of this one, I wanted to report my problem here as well. It's a big issue, I think even bigger than pressing F10 and then left, because nautilus has become useless for me and I have to do all my file operations on the console now.
Steps to reproduce: 1 - Open a terminal and execute top to monitor CPU usage; 2 - Open nautilus; 3 - Switch to the terminal and observe that nautilus goes to 100% CPU usage for about 20 seconds, freezing its UI (can't do anything with it); 4 - Try to use nautilus (expand folder tree, select files, open a different folder) and the CPU goes to 100% again and the UI freezes for a while again. Here's some system and packaging information: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch) Release: 11.04 $ apt-cache policy nautilus nautilus: Installed: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Candidate: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Version table: *** 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy nautilus-data nautilus-data: Installed: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Candidate: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Version table: *** 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy nautilus-dropbox nautilus-dropbox: Installed: 0.6.7 Candidate: 0.6.7 Version table: *** 0.6.7 0 500 http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt-cache policy libnautilus-extension1 libnautilus-extension1: Installed: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Candidate: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Version table: *** 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Yesterday when I tried this unity-panel-service was also going 100% CPU when I used nautilus. Today it is not doing that anymore. I've been checking for updates a lot lately to see if this issue gets fixed, so one of the latest updates might have fixed it for unity-panel-service, but not for nautilus.
