I am raising the severity to `serious' because this hammers the NFS fileserver and causes severe performance degradation for users logged in with NFS home directories.
Similar issue reported in Fedora, unfixed there too apparently: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=561904 The explanation at the bottom suggests that it is caused by multiple processes accessing the redo log concurrently, particularly if there are multiple NFS clients logged in as the same user presumably. Various hacks are given in the Fedora bug, e.g. cron jobs to kill the runaway process, but that is not an ideal fix I'm observing this problem on squeeze with gvfs 1.6.4-3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
