Nautilus' behavior in the properties dialog (1.07 MB, video/webm)

Nautilus' behavior in the properties dialog

Hello everyone, that's my very first post here! :)

Each time I use Nautilus file properties dialog with a large number of items selected, the displayed weight of those keeps counting, starting over and over, endlessly.

If I go to the parent folder and select the file properties dialog, then it works well.

The trick is that it doesn't happen in every "crowded" folder... It appears to act like that when there's a large number of files (40 items or above weighting several hundreds of MBs).

Thanks and good luck!
Equinoxe.

ps: I attached a video demonstrating that behavior.

Thank you for the response.

I'll have to wait for Gnome 3.12 to be available (and stable) for my distro then.
