Comment 2 for bug 29260

Processor is sitting around 80% on an ftp copy using nautilus (X11 is around 6% according to top). This is a transfer of a 2GB file (DVD iso image) from an ftp site on the LAN (network settles at about 83% according to the system monitor applet).

80% is better than the 100% I was getting, but it's still not very good.

Then once it gets to 100% on the transfer (0:00 Remaining) the dialog sits there a very long time with nautilus taking about 27% and X11 taking about 11%.

By comparison curl and wget use around 40% CPU for the same operation (at around 100% network).

(all tests on dapper, updated before testing)
