Public bug reported: Nautilus usually empties trash in a jiffy on vanilla gnome 3.26 (both on Ubuntu Artful and on other distros). However, in the Ubuntu session it takes a fair bit of time (processing...). My best guess is it is something to do with the Ubuntu Dock indicator that mirrors Nautilus' own progress update. Something could be holding things up there.
