ok, thank you for the quick replies and explanations. The intended behaviour of Nautilus, as described by A. Walton, definitely makes sense and I see that it would not be worth the sacrifice to calculate the size instantaneously, especially since, as mentioned, the size does not usually change that much.
However, I still think that it would be nice to see some sort of indication that Nautilus has recognized that the folder has changed, but has not yet calculated it's new size. From what I understand, Nautilus does recognize that it has changed, right? Because there would have been a change to the folder that would have been registered. I guess this is now a feature request. Let me know if there is a better place for it. -- nautilus delays calculating folder size https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
