Simplified steps:

        1. Create a new directory, say, named 'folder0'
        2. Inside it, create another one, 'folder1'. And inside it, another 
one, 'folder9'
        3. Go in 'folder0' and then 'folder1' again, maybe by clicking on the 
'up' button to go back, and then clicking 'folder1', or double clicking if 
that's how you have nautilus set up
        4. Do this a few times, take note how fast it is to show each 
directory's contents
        5. Go in 'folder1'
        6. With 'folder9' selected, press F2 on the keyboard, 'folder9' should 
be in rename mode. Leave it like that
        7. Without doing anything else, click on the 'up' button
        8. Take note how long it takes to show 'folder1' inside 'folder0', for 
me it's instantaneous
        9. If it took more than a couple of seconds to show 'folder0''s 
contents before, the difference should be very noticeable, enormous

(very) strange fix for slow change directory performance some people experience 
(could help find a fix?)
