Can you please test latest Fedora 16? You will also need to find out why the memory consumption grows like this, it's usually specific to user setup. Can you run it in valgrind to see what's going on? Will do later. FC16 is an alpha version - can not do alpha. Has to waite. Thanks. I'm on Fedora 13 here (I know it's pretty old) but gvfsd shows the very same behaviour. I figured out (after some search on the web) that this is due to gvfsd having some problems with "external media". In fact gvfsd took more and more memory (at about a rate of 1 MB every 2-3 seconds) up until I removed a CD from the CD Drive. I don't know whether this issue is fixed in new Fedora releases, but it would be great if it could also be solved for older versions as this is a very problematic behaviour. I hope this information helps in finding what exactly is causing the problems (seems to be connected with CD mounting or something in that direction). On the same hardware, FC 16 has no such problem.

I don't think we can build packages for unsupported releases, the buildsystem wouldn't let us to do so. In Fedora 17, we've introduced udisks2 volume monitor, completely rewritten. In Fedora 16, we have (a potentially fixed) older gdu volume monitor. Would be great if you could test it on both releases, unless already done so (comment 4) and close this bugreport if fixed please. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
