nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV in nautilus_files_view_set_selection when working with large directory tree

[Peter]

Was working with a relatively large directory tree (machine learning dataset of images, separated into folders). Nautilus froze up and crashed. Unsure if it's related to the large directory tree but I have found it getting sluggish in similar places

[Apport retracing service (apport)]

This crash has the same stack trace characteristics as bug #1713581. However, the latter was already fixed in an earlier package version than the one in this report. This might be a regression or because the problem is in a dependent package.
