I upgraded to 1.12.3-4 on the 6th of February, but didn't restart the computer until yesterday. After restarting, I experienced a desktop freeze, so I restarted and checked the logs but there was nothing relevant there. The freeze happened again, and by the time I switched to another tty and fired up htop, the gvfs-metadata service was using 80% RAM plus 100% CPU (with over 1 GiB already swapped).<BR>
<BR>
There is no remote filesystem involved, and the behavior is similar to the one described in bug #695306, but with the newer version.<BR>
<BR>
By downgrading to 1.12.3-3, gvfs-metadata stopped misbehaving.<BR>
