gvfs-dav uses 100% cpu

[mikbini]

Binary package hint: gvfs

This happens a lot to me, probably because I use evolution webdav calendar support, but it happens also while accessing webdav shares. It's not perfectly reproducible but using webdav for an hour always trigger it.

I just noticed that, if I kill gvfs-dav (to stop it using 100% cpu) then I'm no longer able to mount dav shares via nautilus until I logout and login again.

I'm marking it as a duplicate of bug #530605 as, since it was fixed, I was no longer able to reproduce this.
