It's been happening on my laptop since 13.04, and the reason was and still is (on 14.04) opening Nautilus on a Folder that contains either Photos and/or Videos, and once the Thumbnails are shown, then my i7 CPU feels like it's burning, really burning and the fan wants to fly, the hud-service goes crazy consuming both the CPU resources and the memory, which goes up to 1.7GB in no time. Surely it's a memory leak sort of thing.
