Bug#981073: dolphin: Dolphin uses 100% CPU

[Norbert Preining <preining@logic.at>]

Hi Steve,

once more...

Well, when a **big** folder is in view, it takes up a full core, indeed.
But that is to be expected. You are requesting to stat every single file
down from the place where you are. And that in parallel for each folder
that is currently in the view. That takes CPU cycles, not very
surprisingly.

And that is also the reason why this setting is **NOT** enabled by
default, but you have activated it yourself.

Well, bottom line, not a bug, just file system crawling ...

I tend to close this bug, do you have objections?

Best

Norbert
