Title:
  nautilus loads the contents of a directory and sorts them at the same
  time makes it slow and unstable

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  When opening a directory full of images which are sorted by anything
  other than "manually" (especially "By Modification Date" which seems
  to be the worst case) nautilus takes a very long time in the loading
  process because it starts sorting the files before it has fully loaded
  the file list and the thumbnails.

  during the loading process, icons (thumbnails) move around in every
  direction as new files keep popping up in the middle of the file list
  which makes nautilus act crazy and it becomes unusable for about a
  minute or so..

  i'm testing on an images directory that contains 1271 images and 79 
subdirectories..
  opening the same directory on the "Manually" arrangement option seems to take 
about 3 seconds.. any other option makes it take a significantly longer time to 
complete the process..

  Intel P4 3.0GHz, 1GB of RAM, Ubuntu 8.04 and Nautilus 2.22.3
