I agree 100%. A 3d view is only interesting for a technical reason: whether
nautilus component system really works. :-)

Probably more important is optimization of the startup, because on my
500Mhz P3 with 384M (and a really really fast drive) it takes about 20+
seconds for Nautilus (CVS HEAD) to startup for the first time... That's
unacceptable.

I am really curious where the slowdown is; am willing to help you out - if
anyone gives me some clues.

On another note: once about every time Nautilus pops up a dialog with the
message "Nautilus is searching for Trash folders". It's a little bit
irritating.

Note: I really like Nautilus.

Bye.
