Public bug reported: The only thing that partially fixed this was to remove bookmarks as someone had advised, but even then definitely not as fast or responsive when running nautilus as root.
This began to happen a few months ago ( not sure exactly when). Ubuntu 12.04 nautilus 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu7 Any immediate solutions/tips would be welcome, nautilus is for me is the most useful file manager. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1161579 Title: Nautilus is far too slow unless running as sudo nautilus Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The only thing that partially fixed this was to remove bookmarks as someone had advised, but even then definitely not as fast or responsive when running nautilus as root.
