Comment 1 for bug 627987

Hi once again,
I've seen that memory leaks with gvfsd have been reported multiple times in different areas. I can now confirm that the same behavior occurs whith different external HDDs. I have currently a backup running (full) with dar that had already after about 12 hours reached a full swap file plus used up 8 GB RAM. Closing some apps reduced the memory usage, and uit hasn't gone up since. gvfsd shows 7.4 GB virtual memory usage, with 3.9 GB not swappable.
A new dar process had begun after midnight, which changed nothing so far. RAM is at 6.2 GB used up, and Swap at 2.5 GB.
It would be nice if xomeone would look into this, or at least tell me that someone is working on it. I take it that there is no way to flush gvfsd's memory usage?
