Bug Description

With a cifs device (a NAS, in my case) mounted via a "normal" mount, caja counts the files in subdirectories despite being set not to. This destroys the performance of the NAS if you have a few hundred directories at any given level in an open caja window, and takes forever to actually finish.

This doesn't happen with the same remote folder mounted via gvfs, but that has less than half the performance of a cifs mount because of gvfs's terrible samba configuration/use and isn't really an option.
