This is not a Samba share. This is a userspace filesystem that is
insanely slow at listing directory content. In other words, this is a
performance problem inside GVFS.

You should rather avoid GVFS. Either mount the SMB filesystem natively
(with kernel CIFS support), or supply VLC with the original smb:// URL.

** Package changed: vlc (Ubuntu) => gvfs (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: gvfs (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

** Summary changed:

- Does not play some files from a folder in samba share without a several 
minutes long delay even if Kaffeine plays them from there right away
+ gvfs takes ages to list SMB directory content from VLC
