For /usr/bin, that's the expected behaviour, and easy to explain. ROX doesn't do magic lookups on the MIME database, while Thunar follows the MIME spec (with one small exception) and does the magic lookup if none of the glob patterns match. Since Linux binaries usually don't include an extension, no glob patterns will match, and Thunar will have to open each file and check the magic patterns. Looking into 2128 files for the first time can take up to 20 seconds, depending on the systems I/O performance.
