Not a bug in nautilus. The problem exists somewhere else.

Thanks to a comment upstream, I tracked the problem down to the file /proc/kcore. This file alone is reported as 128TB, even by the 'ls' command.

According to:
http://www.unixguide.net/linux/faq/04.16.shtml
The size of this file should be equal to the amount of memory in your system.

Does that make this a kernel bug?
