Comment 14 for bug 1339048

I had the same issue with Cinnamon after doing some hard drive file recovery for someone. Ended up being too many files in trash folder / Applet. Cinnamon was not very happy loading any directory with large amounts of files using Nemo either. It was constantly trying to create thumbnails even when I had it set to detail view. I think there is just too much unnecessary file indexing going on in the background. No longer a fan of Cinnamon. Not worth the short falls.
