Bug#352018: nautilus progress update vastly inaccurate and no
redraw with webdav

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.12.2-2
Severity: normal
I am using nautilus on a regular basis to upload files to a webdav
server (https). Usually it's only one tarball of a few megabytes.
nautilus would show progress bar as shown in
screenieNautilusFalseProgress.png from the start whereas in reality it
would take about five minutes to transfer the file. It appears that the
progress is calculated based on the number of files rather than the file
sizes and transfer speed.
Secondly, nautilus has redraw problems and sometimes blocks the whole
desktop (not just other nautilus windows, but say a firefox window as
well).
It would be great if this could be improved as it presents as major
usability issue when an application appears to be hanging for minutes.
Best regards & thanks a lot,
Andree
