A couple quick/easy 'discoveries':
Time to open directories seems about linear in number of items (1m
20sec for 370, 2m 50sec for 670.) Anyway apparently not exponential.
(These were all text files BTW.)
A few times nautilus has remained busy/hung for several minutes
_after_ showing the contents list, but it's always come back when I wait
it out.
It seems the same regardless of zoom, or whether I ask for list or
icons, and as far as I can tell (with stopwatch) is nearly constant for
any given directory.
It doesn't seem to be thrashing the HD, in fact I think I'm only
seeing normal (background?) HD access. Memory usage seems normal; about
1GB of 3.7 available, no swapping activity. Whatever it's tangled in
seems big enough to be distributed well over 4 CPUs, so I'd think not a
tight loop.
THE BIG NEWS: It seems the really long delays only occur when I
click on the 'turn down' arrow to ask the directory to open. When I
double click on the folder icon/symbol it opens much faster, but not as
quickly as I think it used to(?) Also clicking the 'Up' arrow on the
resulting window seems to take an unreasonably long time to get back to
the parent directory. I hope someone can make sense of those.
