superkuh | Anyone know how to get Caja to keep updating folder listings in real time as changes happen when there are more than 5000 files/folders in a directory? Caja seems to stop updating in real time once 5000 is passed. | 19:09 |

superkuh | I have to always remember to hit the "Reload the current location" button to get an accurate directory listing. | 19:09 |
sixwheeledbeast | I recall it being a known issue that caja doesn't like 5000+ files but I can't remember the details. | 19:25 |

superkuh | It's not just Ubuntu MATE either. My Debian 11 MATE does the same. | 19:31 |
superkuh | I guess I just keep thunar open for large folders. | 19:31 |
sixwheeledbeast | copying that number of files is also an issue I believe. | 19:43 |
superkuh | File managers have one job. :\ | 19:45 |
superkuh | Actual Nautilus on actual Gnome 2 handles folders with over 15,000 files just fine and keeps dynamically updating fast. | 19:49 |
superkuh | Things have only gone backwards software-wise since 2010. | 19:49 |
superkuh | It's a struggle just to stay in place and keep the same basic functionality. | 19:49 |
