Hi,

Going to ask here to the whole thread.

"Some cancelled tasks say Cancelled. Other cancelled tasks look like
they're paused, with their most recent state during copy frozen in
time, how many files copied,"

https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=d4a4f7915ccad4fbe9bb72
6dd9f876738c7960d4
Expected to be fix in 3.22.2

"the copy performance"
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757747
Expected to be fix in 3.22.2
Also the rewrite of the operations backend has been in my plans for one
year, and it's going to happen in the next GSOC iteration, with our
awesome previous gsoc student, Razvan Chitu.

"There are some cosmetic bugs here. If you file a bug, I suggest filing
it upstream."
Yes please.

"So ideally this is the file manager job to
queue copy operations"
Indeed, this is 100% the job of the file manager. See response above
about the operations backend rework planned.

"the progress window isn't helpful. It jumps to the top automatically,
disturbing the user's scrollbar usage."
Please file a bug

"It gets cluttered up. It cannot be cleaned up while waiting for more
tasks to finish. "
Cleaning already completed operations sounds like something we would
like to. Please a file a bug so we can discuss with designers, or go
ahead to #gnome-design and ask about that there, that would accelerate
the process.

"There is no reason to believe that the Nautilus devs aren't happy with
the feature set"
We are never completely happy, after all we are quite demanding.
However there are few reasons why it's not excellent for your use case,
one of the reasons is simply we don't have that use case and we didn't
took it into account, so please file a bug explaining clearly and
shortly what is your use case and why current approach is not enough.
It's also helpful if you compare with other state of the art file
managers providing some ideas. That would accelerate greatly the
process.

"If you hope to achieve any change, involving the people who wrote the
code would be helpful, and this list is not the place where you will
achieve that..."
I just want to repeat this from Matthias, if you want a real
improvement or change please address to the correct place and people,
in this case, upstream Nautilus bugzilla or irc in irc.gnome.org
#nautilus.

Have a nice day everyone
Carlos Soriano

PD: kudos to this lists.fedoraproject.org website, quite nice.
