Curious. Whatever is making dancing your CPU cycles there has to be

I don't get it... I can of course make some guesses but you can confirm
which is best :-)
Is either that..?
a/ You manually launch nautilus to browse files.
b/ You run gnome-fallback (gnome-classic), as this runs an instance of
nautilus by default.
c/ You run gnome-shell and have the browser handling the desktop (this
also makes nautilus to be launched on login).
d/ A mix of a/, b/ and/or c/

Ah, okay. Then let's take b/ as valid :-). Then you can compare the
results with gnome-shell.
I rarely enter into the fallback mode in my wheezy system, let's see how
CPU resources is taking nautilus... (relogin) He, this is funny: I get a
0% of CPU usage but nautilus is using 20 MiB of my ram ("res" value). In
fact, it's listed as the top memory hungry process here.
