Ubuntu LTS 16.04.6

118K files in trash
gvfs-trash consumes both CPUs and 100% of available memory

"empty trash" goes into prepare phase, but nothing appears to happen, presumably because of the large number of files, so I closed the window by clicking the <x>

rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/*

nautilus window on trash:/// goes dark for a long time, but eventually comes back to show Trash to be empty

opening the Trash icon (on the on the launch bar) shows it to be empty and both <restore> and <empty> buttons are greyed out, but the Trash icon still shows 'filled'

(yes, I think Bug #1558768 is about the same problem)
