I am using gutsy gnome. Whenever I open a folder with mp3 files, the nautilus becomes very unresponsive. Each click or right click takes a long time to bring the mp3 under focus or to bring the right-click menu respectively. This slow-down does not seem to happen in folders with no mp3.

Previously, I had just 2 mp3 files on my desktop and the whole desktop was very slow. So, I think it is not related to the folder size. After I moved the mp3 to a sub-folder, the desktop thankfully became faster again, but now nautilus becomes slow whenever I open that particular sub-folder.

Hope this helps. What is vfat by the way? I am not sure if I am using vfat...
