I also have this issue at the moment. Ubuntu 9.10, 64bit. Gnome-panel has a cpu usage of between 80 and 100% and is unusable.
I plugged one of my ntfs hdd's out yesterday. It does have a fstab entry. Will replug it now and check what happens.
AND IT WORKED!
Everything is fine now. Thus, this is not a duplicate bug. This is a bug samewhere between gnome-panel <-> fstab <-> fuse <-> ntfs-3g.
My ntfs-3g version is: 2009.11.14 integrated FUSE 27
My fstab line for the ntfs hdd looks as follows: /dev/sdb1 /media/250B ntfs user 0 0
