            Bug ID: 386460
           Summary: Trashing is slow when trash size is limited
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 17.08.2
          Platform: Neon Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: dark...@nearce.com
                CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Currently dolphin's trash system feels incredibly sluggish by default on many
distributions. I feel this has a negative impact on a lot of new users -- and
potentially unknowing experienced users -- in regards to their feeling about
dolphin and KDE in general.

I think this situation could be remedied a couple of different ways:
- Switch defaults so that dolphin operates on a 30 day time frame cleanup,
rather than a disk %
- Change the limiting system to be handed by a background job; so effectively
when you delete a file, it would be immediately moved, but then in the
background, something would be tasked with cleanup the necessary amount of disk
space from the trash soon after. This would allow the user to get instant
feedback, and the enforcement of the disk space limit would then happen
seamlessly in the background, without any impact to user experience.
