           Summary: I wish dolphin could handle large files and
                    directories containing a large number of files
           Product: dolphin

SUMMARY
***
In video post-production, I typically extract over a hundred thousand files in
a directory. If I select 4,000 files and right-click, I can go get a sandwich
and a beer before the copy/delete pop-up appears. I selected a 30Gb file for
deletion, but dolphin cannot delete, it can only move to trash, which in this
case is on a different drive; it's been ten minutes and dolphin is still moving
that 1 file to Trash. Whenever I have to delete over a thousand files, I launch
Filezilla. Those developers have discovered a secret way to delete thousands of
files instantly. Perhaps they could share their secret with dolphin?

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Do anything involving thousands of files or tens of gigabytes in size.

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing for a very long time. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Expect no difference between selecting one file or ten thousand.
