Large file copies using too much CPU time

Hi

Do you have a Konqueror window open browsing the destination directory?

If so that could be the problem - I think what happens is that there are ways 
too many 'file has been updated' messages causing Konq to update itself lots 
and munch CPU.  Closing that Konq (or going to a different directory) should 
cause it to calm down a bit.

Of course it arts is the guilty thing then it couldbe summat completely 
different.

Cheers

Shane
