Bug Description
Hello everybody,
1- When copying large amount of data (i.e. 4,1 GB ~ 90 files, ~ 50 Mb each one) to a USB HD (FAT32) with Nautilus, the transfer is very slow. About 3 M Sec in some circumstances.
2- the same with a big file > 3 GB, it's much slower than file copying in XP or Vista.
3- while copying a huge amount of data to my USB HD drive, the computer seems to slow down: windows switching in gnome is much slower, using big application (i.e. Mozilla) is really slower
It's real annoying, please fix this problem, I would like to have performances comparable to my windows environment
Thanks
Sergio
This is a very difficult, system-level issue, not a trivially fixable usability bug.
