Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu 9.10  - the Karmic Koala 64bit
nautilus: 1:2.28.1-0ubuntu3


When copying a file (2.6 GB in size) via Nautilus file manager from a SATA HDD 
to a USB thumb drive I monitor via iostat.  I see iostat show a good rate of 
copy until ~600MB is copied.  When at ~600MB copied it stalls and I see iostat 
report <1MB/s.  After searching google I see others are having similar issues.  
Others are reporting that if closing windows or displaying files in windows 
without viewing as thumbnails the issue seems to go away.

I closed all Nautilus windows and tried copying the file via command
line cp and viewed again via iostat.  Iostat showed a constant 15MB/s
until the copy completed.

>From what I can tell this seems to be a Nautilus bug.
