I have the same problem on Ubuntu proper. Nautilus is unusable using 100% CPU usage.
I have removed the links for Documents, Downloads, Pictures etc in my home folder, and restored those folders back to being normal folders (not links to elsewhere). I have made links to the actual Documents, Pictures etc folders inside the normal home folders. This stops caja (in mate) and nautilus (in Ubuntu) from consuming 100% CPU usage. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879070 Title: caja uses 100% CPU on login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1879070/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
