[Bug 773541] Re: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow
dunno I can't find it now but that has been reported on different bugs and discussed over years, it might have been reassinged to the kernel since most people claimed it was a disk handling issue and not a nautilus one -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773541 Title: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/773541/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 773541] Re: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow
Copying to USB external drive is very slow and in most cases stops copying. It would seem this is so for large files. I have had problems with files over 200MB. Small files copy without a problem. Copying large files 1G or more fails or slows to taking hours to complete a copy. As the copy process goes beyond 200Mbyes the process slows down to almost stoping. I cannot copy a whole directory. I cannot copy any files of more than 200mb without problems. Clean boot with out running othe programs does not help. I have check drive permissions , but this does not explain why large files fail too. Test system D510M0 Intel mother board with 2G ram. Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS with all up dates. Samsung 320G external drive format 32. Bottom line copying large files to USB drive does not work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773541 Title: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 773541] Re: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow
Your problem seems the exact opposite of mine: I have no problem copying large files and it is not slow. In my case what is slow is copying many small files. It seems like in my case the overhead is in creating files, but only when copying them (if I extract the same files from a zip directly to the usb drive it's fast, and it's creating the files anyway) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773541 Title: copying many small files to USB drive is extremely slow -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
