Comment 27 for bug 1069843

Same here on a Dell Latitude E5510, which I updated to 14.04 these days. I have compiz enabled.

For me, CPU consumption begins right after executing nautilus, while nautilus consumes approximately 25% to 40% of the cpu according to top. It seems as if as if all 4 threads of my dualcore cpu are in use by nautilus. Once consuming cpu, it does not stop anymore until I close nautilus.

Definately, it is unusable that way on a laptop on battery. Capacity drops from 5-6 hours to 1-2 hours just because of nautilus. Please fix this annoying bug which seemed to be active for years now.
