Still this way years later on Bionic with 4 cores and 8 GB RAM I just tried to open a folder of maybe 100 images from my camera average 7 MB each after maybe 3 minutes of no preview or listing of any of them, I got frustrated and started searching for a way to make Nautilus not even just faster but even usable. I use it to display my desktop (metacity w/ Gnome flashback )or I would just make some other ANY other file manager be default.
