Is that still an issue in newer Ubuntu series?
The problem here is 'Creating pipes for GWakeup' which is sign that something on the system is leaking fds, gvfs is just hitting an error due to the lack of resources on the system so it's not really a gvfs bug (unless it's the one having the leak, but that's not likely)

It is an issue for me on 18.04.2, see my recent duplicate reports.

What happened to the upstream bug report?

Upstream is here:

Was closed "as no further information has been provided", so didn't make the migration to Gitlab.

Potentially related upstream bugs:

Potentially related bugs elsewhere:

The only workaround I've seen is "kill gvfsd-trash". I don't think anyone has been able to reliably reproduce it. If I had to guess, I think it might have to do with mounting and deleting files on USB flash drives.
