Stop thinking that Nautilus is a good indicator of speed already damnit! It is possible that you and other users really get buggily slow performance, but I assure that there is just as many in this thread that experience no other bugs than themselves interpretting Nautilus wrong. And since you didn't notice, there is nothing to solve as there haven't been supplied sufficient information to diagnose a bug. If you've got hardware that performs significantly better with Windows or different kernels then file a proper bug. > > I wish this would get fixed really soon, I recently went back to the "other" > > OS and it itself has many stability issues that Ubuntu does not > > have, so I promptly switched back to 9.04. And I wish all you people got a clue as how to make a useful bug report really soon, but it seems like I'll have to go back to dreaming. > Not sure if this has been mentioned or not, but I noticed today that > performance is much much better when copying directories to directories vs. > copying a file to a directory.
