The CPU load jumps up for a few minutes and ~2GB of data is written to
a file named "empty" in the catagory "Unfiled"?  I found it occurs
everytime you create and delete a file between two syncs and I think
the attached diff fixes it.  I submitted this to bugs.gnome.org about
two days ago, but I haven't gotten a response, so I don't know if
any maintainer has gotten it yet.
