Description Saleem Abdulrasool 2011-04-08 01:42:35 UTC 
Just filing the bug so that I dont forget.  I noticed that the disk space calculation is synchronous atm.  When trying to stat an NFS volume that was no longer available, the control-center hangs.  The stat should be async with a timeout, and potentially add a notifier that it is calculating.

For GNOME 3.2, as we have a string freeze break.
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2011-04-08 19:52:35 UTC 
I think we can easily land the async part in 3.0.x and keep the translatable="yes" part for 3.2.
