Version: (using KDE 4.4.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages I'm using kubuntu karmic 64 bit, with ext4 and a encrypted home. (ecryptfs) When I copy, much files using dolphin (kio_file), the computer becomes (unusable) very slow. When I copy, much files using command line (cp), i don't have any problem. When i compare the copy speed between cp and kio_file, cp is much faster. When I compare the cpu usage between cp and kio_file, kio_file uses much more cpu. (wa: 80% in top) This only occurs when copying from the encrypted homedirectory. The only difference, i can think about is that, kio_file constantly updates the status of the copy proces.
I have the same problem, especially when copying from a USB stick och memory card KDE 4.4.5 Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04 I have a 32-bit system and ext4, not encrypted. The computer is more or less unuseable while copying.
Hi! I also suffer from this problem. My distribution is Kubuntu 10.10 (64 bit, KDE 4.5.1) and I do not use any encrypted drives or folders: / ext3 /home ext4 On copying with Dolphin (v1.5), my system becomes flooded with "kio_file" processes 12312 kio_file 12313 kio_file [..] 12341 kio_file 12342 kio_file and I cannot launch any other processes, as I have enabled fork bomb protection by adding * - nproc 200 to "/etc/security/limits.conf". Please tell me if I can help you with debugging in any way! Martin
i have same issue on kubuntu 11.04
Similar problem here, running Fedora14 with KDE 4.5.5. Copying 400MB file to my NAS (mounted using cifs) with konqueror has a maximum write speed of 4MB/second. CPU load is constantly high during the process, according to top X itself uses most CPU. Copying the same file via plain "cp" command results in 9MB/sec with almost no additional CPU load. I am not using any disc encryption.

This is probably fixed by the same applied for bug #247204. Feel free to reopen if that is not the case.
