Description of problem: After some days of using my main user account, i have speed problems with nautilus on opening and closing folders. Even if a folder is completely empty the same behaviour appears. So, i started investigating the issue. I logged in another fresh account and there is no such problem (initialy). Then i deleted all my files in my main home folder and problem disappeared for a while. I started recovering my files from backup (no hidden folders backup just plain files) and after a while slow behaviour appeared again. Then i read .xession-errors file and i found that it is full of lines like these: (nautilus:21981): Gtk-WARNING **: Refusing to add non-unique action 'submenu_file:\s\s\shome\snikos\s%CE%A0%CF%81%CF%8C%CF%84%CF%85%CF%80%CE%B1\sgnomegr' to action group 'TemplatesGroup' (nautilus:21981): Gtk-WARNING **: Refusing to add non-unique action 'submenu_file:\s\s\shome\snikos\s%CE%A0%CF%81%CF%8C%CF%84%CF%85%CF%80%CE%B1\sgnomegr' to action group 'TemplatesGroup' (nautilus:21981): Gtk-WARNING **: Refusing to add non-unique action 'submenu_file:\s\s\shome\snikos\s%CE%A0%CF%81%CF%8C%CF%84%CF%85%CF%80%CE%B1\sgnomegr\sgnome-icon-theme-2.18.0' to action group 'TemplatesGroup' .... .... .... .... ...Too much output, ignoring rest... I thought that maybe is something related to localized folder names (from xdg-user-dirs package) and maybe there is some base to my thought: I logout of my account, changed language from Greek to English, changed folder names (with wizard) to English and nautilus is speedy again! Then i revert the changes (go back to Greek enviroment) and nautilus is slow again... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Hmm, what files do you have inside the templates directory (the greek named one)? Is things still slow in greek if you remove the files in that directory?
Alex you are right, i have two folders with gnome icon themes in there. After removing them from templates directory, speed is ok again with greek folders name in use. Is this still a bug? Why with English folder names i did not have any problem?
I don't think it was affected by the language as such, just what was in the corresponding templates folder.
I believe this checkin to 2.21.1 fixes this: 2007-12-12 Alexander Larsson <alexl> * src/file-manager/fm-directory-view.c: (new_folder_done): Remove spew (add_submenu): (add_submenu_to_directory_menus): Avoid creating three copies of template menu actions Reopen if you see this in >= 2.21.1 (which is in rawhide now)
