I have seen the same issue. > I've turned off safe delete to see if that was the problem, but I > don't think it is, since it's still slow to do deletes.

I have found that clearing out ~/.gqview/trash before starting helps a lot, but that's about safe delete. > I admit I'm also running it inside a VM with only 512mb of RAM setup, > but that's really the only thing I'm doing inside that VM is > manipulating my photos.

I would add some kind of log statements with gettimeofday to microseconds, and sprinkle them to narrow down where the time is going. My theory is that there is some linear scan which needn't happen (on delete), and it's highly likely this is a geeqie bug rather than gtk2.
