Bug Description

urbanape: mmcc: com.ubuntu.one.fsevents was claiming 15GB of Virtual Memory on my machine. Known issue?
mmcc: urbanape: no, we haven't looked at its memory usage yet, can you file a bug or just email me with more info? specifically, was there a burst of activity or did it just accumulate slowly.
urbanape: My guess is it accumulates slowly.
urbanape: Now that I've seen it, I'll take a closer look.
urbanape: I got three "almost out of disk space" alerts over the past few days.
urbanape: After restarting, I've got plenty of room.
urbanape: When I sorted Activity Monitor by Virtual Memory, it was at the top of the list.
urbanape: Since force quitting the fsevents process I've reclaimed that space.
