I also have this problem with Ubuntu 16.04.

uname -a
Linux cpf-dx4840-i3 4.8.0-44-generic #47~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 22 18:51:56 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Nautilus 3.14.3

I simply drag and drop files from a folder to another. The folder contains:
(84 PNG (pictures) files of approx. 3 MB and one PDF file (250 MB))

The dialog box shows "Preparing to move N files" (ex: 26)

Then it jams for about 2 minutes...

thanks
