Hi,

When I copy a lot of data at once in a directory my system becomes slow because the file-transfer is taking all CPU resources.  It averages around 35MB/sec.

Could a slider be added to the dialog to slow the transfer down? Maybe adding some idle time, the slider could be a proportion of 0.5sec delay.  This would allow other processes time to function if the user wanted to reduce the speed.

Could be done using a process priority too perhaps? like "nice" and "renice"

Cheers
Jon

omg. i came on this site to add this same feature request. (i thought i was the first to think of it).

anyway, i have my /home on an nfs mount... i'm copying large files to local drive and everything is soooo sluggish. it'd be nice if the copy was, well, nice. having an advanced button on the copy/move dialog would be nice, to show such options.

btw, this seems to be very similar to this one...

Show selected rows in the layer docker in Windows styles

Adding m_wdgLayerBox->listLayers->setSelectionBehavior(QAbstractItemView::SelectRows);
makes the windows styles paint the selection background for the whole
row. Oxygen-based styles don't need that, apparently, but it cannot
hurt.
