Right clicking takes >3 minutes to open the menu if there are more than 300 files in the current folder. Opening a directory with 12,000 files takes so long that I get to catch up on my reading. Also Caja frequently crashes (even more often than Chrome). This was not a problem in earlier versions of Ubuntu MATE (18.04 through 20.04.3 without the last 3 updates).
