Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

I'm still waiting for my sync of very many files to fill my 20GB storage to test bug #744383 yet next to addressing the issue described in Bug #761578 there is still another issue. The sync daemon is using 1,4GB of resident memory and it seems that it is not making any sync progress:

Mem: 4054512k total, 3963696k used, 90816k free, 80828k buffers

I'm testing: 1.4.6-0ubuntu3 from -proposed but this issue was also observed with the with the version in -updates.
