Thanks again for taking the time.
It's difficult to say exactly the number at which it occurs because
there's a point at which the normal time to copy a small number of files

I still have this bug. It is one of the most frustrating things as we
all know that it must be a simple fix. if mv works why does moving large
volumes of files graphically have to be so slow. Its faster copying then

In my case the move operation successfully completed after a while. But
the progress dialog didn't show any progress at all, it appeared

Hi

* Is nautilus stuck on IO ? what IO wait ( check top o/p)

I have the same problem. And it happens quit frequently.
Sometimes it will happen when moving with as few as 100 files. But
generally it is with folders with higher file counts.
I have seen it happen on my SSD and also via SMB when moving files
around on my NAS.
