OK, this looks interesting.

Transferred another 26678 files, 48,3 GB without issues.
gvfsd-smb memory usage grew from about 3 to 15 Mb, and nautilus' from 10 to 
about 50Mb during the copy.
At the end of the copy, I noticed that neither process had released any memory.

So I started a second copy.
gvfd-smb grew to 32 Mb and nautilus to 74. Again, no memory release. I noticed 
that both processes memory usage grows much more quickly when transferring many 
small files, than when dealing with few but large ones.

Third time, gvfsd-smb up to 46 and nautilus up to 99

So I kept trying until I finally had the copy hang.
gvfsd-smb memory usage had grown to about 130Mb and nautilus' to about 250 Mb.

Your thoughts? Is this behaviour normal?
Could somebody able to easily trigger it post gvfsd-smb and nautilus memory 
usage at the moment of the hang?
Also, is there anybody on 12.04, who's not experiencing the issue, who can 
check these processes behaviour?
