Dolphin and FUSE file system is slow

[Martin Kho]

Hi,

I'm using Wuala [1] secure online storage. One of its options is filesystem 
integration. "With filesystem integration enabled, Wuala creates a virtual 
harddisk drive to which your operating system can connect."

On Linux FUSE is used. The output of df -h gives:
javafs                1.0G   50M  975M   5% /home/martin/WualaDrive

What I experience is that scrolling and opening/entering directories in 
Dolphin and Konqueror is rather slow.

I saw that there is a report in bugs.kde.org [2] where Dolphin gets slow when 
using sshfs (FUSE).

I've issued "ls -al WualaDrive" on the command line (Konsole) which is fast.

The same for Nautilus in Gnome.

Did anyone else have seen this? Do I miss something?

Thanks,

Martin Kho

I'm running a full updated Fedora 15. Dolphin Version 1.6.1, Using KDE 
Development Platform 4.6.3

Sounds like you should file a bug report at bugs.kde.org.
No idea what's causing your problem, though.

the problem is that konqueror/kde are generally slow with remote filesystems
because the counting of items, try generating previews and so on takes
way too much time over network but it does upstream nobody interest that
this is painfully and there should be a differnt handling for remote-filsystems

yes, this would be a hack because it would make a difference between
remote/local, but this is needed as long not all machines have 100 Mbit up
