[Nautilus-list] 4 nautilus processes chewing up memory



Hello,

I was having some huge performance issues running Gnome under RH7.2 with 64 MB of ram. It seems that 4 nautilus processes are taking up 60% of my memory resources. Why are there 4 processes to begin with and is there any way I can find out where they come from? If I kill one of these processes the window manager shuts down and restarts with 4 new processes.

Here is the output from top - the 15.3 is the percent of memory being used by each process:

 958 root       9   0  6208 4508  3848 S     0.0  15.3  0:02 nautilus
1023 root       9   0  6208 4508  3848 S     0.0  15.3  0:00 nautilus
1024 root       9   0  6208 4508  3848 S     0.0  15.3  0:00 nautilus
1025 root       9   0  6208 4508  3848 S     0.0  15.3  0:00 nautilus
