Still this way years later on Bionic with 4 cores and 8 GB RAM I just tried to open a folder of maybe 100 images from my camera average 7 MB eachafter maybe 3 minutes of no preview or listing of any of them, I got frustrated and started searching for a way to make Nautilus not even just faster but even usable. I use it to display my desktop (metacity w/ Gnome flashback )or I would just make some other ANY other file manager be default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in Nautilus: New Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 869793] Re: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files
I so agree with richardbrucebaxter on this. When I switched all my computers from Windows 98 to Linux in the late 90's this was the biggest practical difference. Now I know its not Linux or the file system but Nautilus that is the problem. Its exactly the same today, load up a large file on a windows system, bang its in your face, right there. On Ubuntu, it several minutes wait. This is a daily thing for me. I hear all the arguments that say its bad practice to have large directories, but sorry I need to do this and if other file managers can cope why not Nautilus? There are many avenues of attack, from better caching, to mult-thread, to prioritization, but this should be fixed. Now we have many file systems that are as fast as they get in this situation, Nautilus just sits on the sidelines, its a terrible shame. Linked to this, the whole thumbnail mechanism in Nautilus is broken, because thumbnails are stored in one place per PC, when its obviously better to store locally as windows does, so that if you make a copy of a dirctory with a new name this metadata just gets copied and does not have to be recalculated. It should also be that tif you move a directory, there is no need to recalculate thumbnail metadata. Most importantly, some of these things (large directories, local thumbnails etc) are important to some people and not important to others. Nautilus should be easily configurable to meet the needs of users and users who need this stuff should be catered for, not told that your use case is unimportant or bad practice, this argument is a circular tautology (defines itself to be true). Please, Nautilus is a central part of the usability of Linux, please could it not be stuck in the 90's ? Please could this be given some priority, even if it is "hard". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in Nautilus: Invalid Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.

Horrible problem in 14.04 and 14.10. It is very slow with folders that contain 500+ files (png, jpg, mp4, mkv). I tested for example a folder with 1000 files. The files were 400 png, 400 jpg, 100 mkv and 100 mp4. It was amazingly slow. Took more than 10 seconds to start showing the previews and then another 60 to 70 seconds to show all. Super slow. The ironic thing is, I have an Intel i7 4700, 32 GB of RAM and the hdd where they are is a Samsung SSD 840PRO. So there was actually no excuse for so slow performance.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 869793] Re: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files
Nautilus has been slow for 13 years. If Linux file browser speed can't improve with Moore's law then it is time to drop the fancy mime based open every file and read its header feature in my opinion. People should not be waiting 500ms for their file browser to display 10 files in 2014, all for the sake of random text files that don't have an extension and should probably be opened with a text editor anyway. In my opinion the Nautilus UI has degraded over time, and has never met the usability standards introduced by windows explorer 95/98 (not that Windows has kept them). It seems like the trend in application/OS user interface development has gone towards zero-customisability; attempting to make one UI fit the needs of both first time and power user, an impossible task. Here are some general suggestions to improve Nautilus efficiency; - instantaneous folder browsing (options to disable mime extension reading and any other header operations which make Nautilus slow) - the ability to add/remove standard interface buttons (eg up folder, home folder) - the ability to select a real location bar (not a bubble bar) - the ability to remove all clutter left and right of the address bar (these should be located in the View menu) - the ability to position the address bar on its own row (the user needs to be able to see the full path at all times, even when operating with multiple unmaximised file manager windows) - the ability to show the full path in the title bar (such that Nautilus windows containing a folder of the same name can be distinguished in the window manager taskbar) - the ability to open a new Window (Ctrl-N) at the same location - the ability to disable the sidebar without using dconf-editor - the ability to add keyboard shortcuts for missing functions (eg Ctrl-G for go button operations; note in order to press Enter after a paste operation the user must move their right hand off the mouse) - the ability to add keyboard shortcuts for existing functions, without modifying .config/nautilus/accels (eg BackSpace for ShellActions/Up) - the ability to view full dates/times - the ability to select an arbitrary application to open a txt file with - the ability to create a new document (without modifying Templates) - the ability to navigate the UI using the keyboard (given there is no longer a menu bar) - the ability to stop the search bar from popping up every time the user presses a character on the keyboard - the ability to close the search bar using the mouse (without knowing that you have to press Ctrl-f) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.

This bugs persists with Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS. I cannot fathom how an issue as drastic as this in a system component as crucial as the file manager after seven years has yet to be resolved. How can PCmanFM and Dolphin be this lightning fast compared to Nautilus? I am not one to complain about bugs in FLOSS software as I know the volunteer time and effort that goes into developing it. This, however, is a core part of the Ubuntu and GNOME experience we are talking about and fixing the slow down should be one of the top priorities both for Canonical and the GNOME foundation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.

Of course, the 43 seconds are the default behavior. If you disable the Show thumbnails option in nautilus preferences, the time goes down to 3 seconds. It seems clear what is causing the problem.

I made a stupid mistake. I was opening the same folder after changing the thumbnails option. Sorry about that. This is a more accurate assessment.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 869793] Re: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files
OK. I linked it to the upstream bug report. Things with Ubuntu 10.10 seem to have improved. Although it depends on the content of the folders. For example, it takes 38 seconds to open a folder with 15,000 images (.img and .hdr) but only ~6 seconds if the files are .dcm. This is having the show thumbnails from Edit/Preferences/Preview/ disabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in Nautilus: Unknown Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 869793] Re: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status.

With Thunar file manager things are even faster: ~3500 files takes 0.5s ~2 files takes ~2s This is ~15 times faster than Nautilus... and it makes a huge difference in usability. Of course, Thunar lacks some of the great features of Nautilus, but I can't see how things like a double pane should have such a big impact on speed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/869793 Title: Nautilus is very slow when opening folders with many files Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Opening folders with many files takes a long time with Nautilus, to the point it becomes unusable for folders with more than 5K files.
