1) lot of folders, sub folders, files on smb disk, for +/- 3GB

It makes sense to include these messages then, or a screenshot showing the error message.

In any case, this is most likely not a Dolphin bug. It might be a problem in kio_smb, which provides access to smb shares.

Just successfully copied a 1.5Gb folder full of files with accents and spaces in filenames onto my local machine without any issue using KDE Frameworks 5.47 and Dolphin 18.04.2. Let's assume that this was fixed somewhere along the way.
