Bug Description
Version: Linux Mint 17, Cinnamon 64-bit
System model: Lenovo T520
What you did for the problem to happen: I upgraded (fresh install) from Mint 15 to 17 a few days back
What happened: The nemo process appears to always be at 20% CPU usage and my hard disk is constantly "working" (HDD light keeps flashing and I can hear it). If I kill the nemo process, the HDD immediately goes quiet. If I open up nemo again (by using the file manager), it's back to 20% CPU and a constantly working HDD.
If the problem happened once, sometimes, or always: Always
Screenshot of top attached. Not sure what other technical details I can include, but happy to provide if requested.

I confirm the problem on my lenovo t440p. (Linux Mint 17, Cinnamon 64-bit)
As soon as Cinnamon is active, a nemo process runs with 100% of one of the cores. I did not check the disk activity.
Tried to kill process and restart it, same behaviour.
