I have a drive that I am sharing over SAMBA that has a directory with 3100 files in it. When I try to access that directory through Nautilus, it takes several minutes to load and display the directory - if it ever does at all. I can go to terminal and ls that same directory and, sure, it takes about 10 to 20 seconds to start displaying the contents - but that is a lot better than Nautilus does.
This same drive used to be in a WindowsXP system that was shared over the same network. At that time, Nautilus would display the same directory in the 10 to 20 seconds that terminal gives.
I can live with simply accessing that directory through terminal (I actually prefer to use terminal when I can), but I would still like to know why Nautilus is reacting the way that it is.
