A large number of folders and a lot of files will cause thunar to freeze
I have a folder with over a thousand subfolders in it. Each subfolder has over a thousand text files. (Even if I turn off the thumbnailed feature) When I open one of the folders, the computer becomes unresponsive and I have to restart the computer The computer is stuck and cannot do anything else. Just press the power button to restart I tried tuxcmd mc rox-filer gnome-commander and they all open these folders fine
My computer memory is 4G, cpu is i5-3427U 1.80GHz thunar 4.16.10 os: devuan 4
