I can absolutely confirm this issue. For example, it does not matter which gtk file manager you use, they are all very slow for opening large directories (even on ssd) with many files (For Qt based filemangers as dolphin, this is not a problem). For example take nautilus and try to open /usr/lib or /usr/bin. This takes much too long. Every gtk application (it does not matter if gtk2 or gtk3) I have tried so far is very slow at browsing files. This has been reported so many times (in most of the cases for nautilus) and still the situation has not changed.
