I'm running kubuntu 12.04 here.

Is GVFS, (Gnome virtual File System), really necessary to
Kubuntu, or can I safely purge/remove/jump up and down on
it's corpse?

I've recently discovered that it's metadata files may be
whats causing firefox and other programs to latch up the
processor/file system/memory/etc., to the point where I'm
locked out of my machine for long periods of time.

I need this like I need, well, never mind.
