After that it shows search results and responds to interaction. When deleting the search criterion, it freezes again for a similar amount of time. Expected behaviour: Nautilus should respond to commands (e.g. double- clicking on a shown file, open a new Nautilus window...) while the search is running. When clearing the search field, it should refresh the view nearly instantaneously. Reproducibility: every time, countless times Workaround: wait it out or use at least 3 letters in the search, which seems not to trigger the above behaviour.
