Re: [orca-list] Nautilus slowness

[Thomas Ward <thomasward1978 gmail com>]

Hi Dave,

Yes. As of Gnome 3.4 Nautilus is extremely slow and unresponsive. If you 
set it to icon view, disable the sidebar, etc you can dramatically speed 
up Nautilus, but in its default state it takes anywhere from 30 seconds 
to a full minute to open a directory. Sometimes even longer if you have 
several books, mp3s, whatever in the directory. Not sure how Nautilus 
behaves on other distributions, but on Ubuntu 12.04 its not very 
responsive without tweaking it. When I was using Ubuntu 11.10, the same 
version of Nautilus Trisquel 5.5 uses, Nautilus didn't seem quite this bad.
