Re: [orca-list] When opening a folder with lot of files in it with Orca, it is very slow.

hi

I can confirm that orca is very slow when opening folders with lots of 
files, regardless of file manager. This urgently needs to be fixed, 
although I'm not sure this is an orca bug, it might be an at-spi or file 
manager, EG caja or nautilus, bug.

Thanks
