Public bug reported: Hello,
Nautilus (files) won't even start on my Ubuntu 13.04. It eventually will start up after some ~10 minutes and will just freeze. I have this problem for some time now where Nautilus was just slow to start or would freeze up. But now it wouldn't even start at all. Please note that I had/have similar (if not same problem) on Debian Sid with 3.8.x kernel. Where Nautilus would just be slow to start, and would eventually freeze up with CPU working at 100% to process Nautilus. How I resolved this problem on Sid is by simply moving back to 3.2.x kernel and everything was "fine", even though Nautilus was pretty slow most of the time. I tried doing same thing on 13.04 where I would move from 3.8.x kernel to 3.5.x but without any success. I do have Dropbox (nautilus-dropbox), but nothing would improve even after purging it or using their own package (Dropbox website). There were no changes even after purging Nautilus and then installing it. There would be no changes even after I would do a clean install, basically the more files I put in my home directory the slower my Nautilus would get. I believe this is an upstream bug and I have a feeling it might be related to linux kernel and its encryption (lvm). FYI, my drive is fully encrypted. It also might be worth noting that a *lot* of users suffer from same problem where Nautilus was just extremely slow (http://goo.gl/gvpMY). I believe this is an extremely important bug which should be taken care of, if you need any additional input or logs from me please let me know.
