Some more investigation... valgrind points to "listMounts" dbus call as the culprit of the leaks. This is the same call that is full of old pidgin URLs and other cruft. I wrote a python script to call it and gvfsd leaks 200kb every time. But the real killer.....

gnome-system-monitor calls "listMounts" 17 times for every update, causing nearly 2mb to leak for every update.

I've sent the bug report and testcase for gvfsd upstream.
