Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
While copying a lot of data (>250GB), Nautilus uses up a lot of memory. This memory is not given back to the system at any time. Depending on the amount of copying Nautilus uses from 800MB up to 3GB. Now using Ubuntu alpha 6 with Gnome 2.28, but this problemed also showed on my old install (Arch Linux Gnome 2.26) I attached a printscreen of the memory in the .png. Memory in use that time: 2.4GB. Amount of data copied (not cutted) was about 750GB.
