Hi Steve, once more...
> I can reproduce **some** CPU usage when selecting this, but definitely > not 100%. Do you have lots of network file systems mounted? Anything Well, when a **big** folder is in view, it takes up a full core, indeed. But that is to be expected. You are requesting to stat every single file down from the place where you are. And that in parallel for each folder that is currently in the view. That takes CPU cycles, not very surprisingly. And that is also the reason why this setting is **NOT** enabled by default, but you have activated it yourself. Well, bottom line, not a bug, just file system crawling ... I tend to close this bug, do you have objections?
