Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit

I am using gedit to write / debug a numerical code in C on Ubuntu 8.04.
The code generates a lot of data in a large number of output files.

In a recent run, 9000 files were generated in the "output" directory. If
I set "output" as the working directory in Gedit, it freezes (the screen
greys out and one of my processors hits 100%).

I am using the "file browser pane" plugin. I think this may be causing
the problem by loading a list of files in the directory. The problem
persists even with the browser sidepane closed. Is there any way to make
the browser plugin more efficient? Nautilus seems to handle the task
much more efficiently.
