Title:
  Copying remaining time estimate is not accurate when doing multiple
  copies

Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When you copy two files (or two set of files) from or to the same disk
  separately, so that you have two copying progress bars and estimates
  and one copying process is dealing with an amount of data larger than
  the other, nautilus calculates the estimate as if both copying
  processes were going to be running simultaneously until copying is
  complete, which is not true. Once the smaller set of files finishes,
  the larger one will get its full speed back and finish sooner than the
  first estimate actually predicted.

  My suggestion: Nautilus should be aware that the second file copy is
  slowing the first one down, so it should calculate the first's
  estimate as something like: <estimate for the smaller set of files
  copy to finish> + <estimate time to copy the amount of data that will
  be left when the second process ends at both processes speed
  combined>.

  Although this approach may look too simplistic, I think it's better
  than the rather pessimistic approach we're using right now.
