Description helmy.m 2014-05-03 03:24:23 UTC

when coping/moving a large number of small files It should be able to calculate how much time is left.
 as the system knows how many files are there and it knows the total files size, then it must have read all the sizes of the files before starting the copy/move operation,
from this data it should be easy to calculate a good estimated time for when copy operations for small file sizes will take based on timing the time it took to process the first 100 files for example 
this should only apply for the small files only that would take more time to process than the actual file size


Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the report. Please always provide the version you are using when filing bug reports.

I'm not sure if the problem is in KIO (the library which handles file moves) or in the Plasma widget.
