I have VERY INTERESTING NEWS (see bottom part of the message)

I think it's the client system triggering too much I/O on the server because it
tries to retrieve as much data as possible from the remote folders. This is not
happening when using Krusader

I am still able to reproduce a situation where Dolphin is stuck and the server
is loaded with a lot of I/O, so the anwer is "no, disabling size column does
not make things more responsive"

The size is already the smallest one and the view is "detailed view"

BUT!!

if instead I set Dolphin to use "Icon" view, the problem is no longer
happening! The folders that used to "stuck" Dolphin are no longer causing
troubles, the folder browsing is very smooth and also I don't see any massive
I/O on the storage server

To make sure to be able to reliable reproduce/not reproduce the problem, in
order to clear all caches, before each test I have ran following commands:

on the client:
$ fusermount -u mount_point
on the storage server:
# zpool export pool_name
# zpool import -d /dev/disk/by-id pool_name
 on the client:
$ sshfs username@ip_address:/pool_name/dataset mount_point
