It also occurs when using any font. I thought it may have been caused by
using pcf/bitmap fonts, but this is not the case. This dynamic column
re-sizing does not occur after upgrading to Nautilus 3.6.

Title:
Nautilus (list view) column widths change dynamically on alt-tab, lags
on large folders
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The problem seems to be that nautilus re-parses the list of files in a
folder after an alt-tab to resize dynamically the column widths, e.g.,
the name column will be made wider if there is a file with a very
large name. What happens is that if you have a large folder, upon a
window redraw (with alt-tab for example), the column width for 'Name'
is set to a small value, and then increases when a larger file name is
found. This produces a weird effect with the columns changing sizes
multiple times - not particularly nice, and I believe will be much
more problematic on very large folders. Isn't there some way of
caching the previously computed value on this same folder and only
refreshing it once, thus making it invisible to the user?
Running updated Ubuntu 12.10 64 bits, nautilus package version
1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4
I witnessed this in a folder containing only 71 files. There was a
file with a considerably longer file name at the end of the folder
(e.g. twice as long, 31 characters vs 15 characters in the first
files)
