It's only been 10 years. Quit being so impatient. ;)

KDialog continues to be the slow bottleneck on my otherwise fast system.

GTK file chooser runs laps around it.

Generic Qt file chooser runs laps around it.

KDialog is hilariously slow, even for local filesystems. (Slow for network
locations *and* local. It's just more noticeable for network shares.) What is
KDialog even doing in the background? Examining every single file inside the
current directory or something? Listing the contents of a folder should be a
smooth process, just like we experience with GTK file chooser, or heck, using
the terminal. I'm not even using thumbnail previews, and it's still crawls with
KDialog.

One workaround I found in the meantime is to trick applications into using the
GTK file chooser instead, but this doesn't work across the board.
