It is kind of hard to compare dtfile and Nautilus. That is one of the main differences between the two. In Nautilus you have things like support for Samba, burning CD's, and an iterface similar to a popular comercial OS. However, that might not matter too much to most CLI people (i.e. the typical Solaris user?). But the tabbed terminal was enough for me to switch. The other big difference is that JDS is open source and probably CDE can't be. And on speed, the only time you'll notice a difference is on slow hardware.
