Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
I think that among recent recommended updates were a new kernel and file
manager (see trouble report from nautilus. I have noticed with an NTFS
filesystem on a USB bus that file operations seem to take longer and
longer and I get a spinner more often than I think I expect. Shell
access via terminal seems not to be affected, only file mgr. The symptom
also appears on the root FS on the boot drive in the main system after
I've been using the external drive. I do have thumbnails turned on, but
I think that even though that causes overhead, most of the delay seems
to be with file moves and rereading the driectory afterwrds.
I know that the external drive on the USB bus has questionable
performance. It is a Western Digital My Book 1.5 TB drive and it does
not have the best reputation for response or throughput, but it worked
much faster in U 9.04 and U10.10 before the latest upgrades. I had
thought that naybe there was added checking for NTFS going on, and I
could accept a little delay if that were the case, but the trouble
report seems indicate some critical failure of performance.
The trouble report out of Nautilus seems to have most of the information
for a bug cited on this page.
