Why it is so slow in removing trash permanently by Thunar

I use XFCE as my desktop environment.
And while removing trash permanently by Thunar,
(just open up the trash can folder on the desktop, and press "del" on the deleted files)
it takes such a long time about
50 minutes for one 1GB-sized directory!
I guess that is really slow, cause it only takes seconds to do this by the "rm" command.
I've tried google but nothing apparently relative has found.
So I'm here wondering if there is anybody experiencing the same (or similar) situation?
thunar: 080-5
fam: 2.7.0-9
hal: 0.5.9.1-1
exo: 0.3.2-5
kernel: 2.6.22.1-4
xfdesktop 4.4.1-3

Thanks for your advises.
But I really appreciate the Trash mechanism, which save me from time to time.
Besides, I also noticed while removing in Thunar permanently, for example, to remove a directory,
Thunar goes down into every files in the directory, which doesn't make sense and may be the reason why it is slow.

My HP dv6 1030us laptop becomes slow when removed from AC power

Hi,
My HP DV6 laptop has windows 7 operating system and it behaves pretty weirdly .
It becomes really slow when removed from AC Power and have to restart my system to bring it to normal speed don't know why its behaving like that and help to resolve the problem would be greatly appreciated and also my system gets overheated a lot and I have to use a cooling pad always to keep it cool and running properly along with AC power
I would greatly appreciate any advice in resolving these issues.
Thanks in advance.

for how long have you had this laptop... If you had it for longer than a year you may be dealing with a dust bunny (acumulation of dust in the vent that's right beside the fan). Normally when that vent is clogged you get the type of overhetaing you may be experiencing, so i recomend you to open it up and give it a nice clean as soon as you can. As for your computer slowing down without the ac adapter.
Do you know under what power option are you running ur computer?

Why is my iPod Touch 5 removing songs I have synched? Plenty memory space

Why is my iPod Touch 5 removing songs I have synched? Plenty memory space. It seems to be deleting tracks which I can then download from iCloud (if there is wifi) but I dont want that

Seems like you have the incorrect sync settings

Many users think it is easer to sync if Show All is turned off in Settings>iTunes and App Store

Why does Photoshop keep slowing down?

I've been using Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 for two years now, and for some reason it seems to have the problem of slowing down after using it for a while, so if I'm working on a project I have to keep closing it and reopening it to get it fast again. It's weird because it doesn't seem to matter how much stuff is on the canvas, it's just how much I've drawn and hit undo and erased or did anything, After like 5 minutes of straight work it just gets too slow for me to work in, like when I switch tools or change the color it takes a couple seconds to respond. So literally every couple minutes I have to restart Photoshop and open the same file.
What's really odd is that sometimes Photoshop will work perfectly fine and stay lightning fast for hours. Like, for the last couple of months it's been 100% fine, but since a few days ago it started to have this "slowing down" issue again. Every couple months it seems to decide to be perfectly fine or just really annoying. I didn't change anything in my computer.
It can't be my computers specs or my settings in Photoshop, but I will tell you all of that anyway.
OS - Windows 7 64-bit
CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.0GHz
RAM - 12GB DDR3 @ 1333MHz

There is no malware scanner running, in fact I have tried closing out all other applications and unnecessary processes to help improve performance. No luck.
Also, my post actually wasn't quite finished, but my internet shut off on me last night and I guess that just automatically posted whatever I had done before then. What's even better is that the forums won't allow me to edit it. What great features!
Anyway, here's the FULL spec sheet of my computer...
OS - Windows 7 64-bit
CPU - Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.0GHz
RAM - 12GB DDR3 @ 1333MHz
GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 1GB
Storage - 1x 128GB SSD (OS installed on), 1x 750GB HDD, 1x 160GB HDD
I have the 64-bit version of Photoshop CS5.1 Extended, installed on the SSD. Here's the settings I have in the preferences:
Memory Usage - 100%
Scratch Disks - All 3, SSD 1st, 750GB HDD 2nd, 160GB HDD 3rd
History States - 100
Cache Levels - 8
Cache Tile Size - 1028K
I have fiddled with these settings and restarted Photoshop countless times. In the end it's the same exact result: Photoshop slows down after a few minutes of work and I have to restart it. I have about 50GB free on the SSD, 150GB free on the 750GB, and about 140GB free on the 160GB.
I don't understand why it gets so slow even when my RAM usage only makes it up to about 45%. Why doesn't it just utilize ALL of the memory like I told it to?
I've tried setting cache to 1, 2, and 4, same result. Cache tile size to all the different settings, same result. History states to an extremely low level like 10, same result. I just don't understand why Photoshop is doing this, especially because it decides to speed up on its own every couple of months...

Why is Start up slow on MacBook Pro after Lion installation?

I've noticed that it takes a while for my MacBook to turn on and start-up since I installed Lion. Any ideas why or how to correct? Thanks!!

Your machine is likely too dated to run 10.8 adequately.
Apple makes it easy, doesn't mean it's right match for your hardware.

Why has dr.web light ben removed from the app store

Why has dr.web light ben removed from the app store and from my shopping list?

Same issue but I'm still on my 5c. I originally thought the issue was due to it's new link to game center so I could be pushed ads like with how crazy taxi is now. Or at least requiring being online to use.
Im wondering if it's even worth paying for a game when eventually it will be turned into the freemimum model anyhow.
I hope someone has an answer for this.

Why Portal will be slow when we work on Theme Editor

Hi Experts,
Why Portal will be slow when we work on Theme Editor in Creating new Theme or modifying existing one.
Note: Since i have done Branding for 6 to 7 Clients i fell same , portal runs very slow.
Thanks
Vijai

Hi,
use the Eclipse Theme Editor. No need to be logged on in the portal, hence: faster. You'll only have to upload the theme afterwards to the portal.

Why do I often have to remove a foreign packages when it's updated?

Why do I often have to remove a foreign package when it's updated in order to make it work after an update?
So many questions in AUR that something is updated and it's not working - "well just rebuild it". Meaning that you should first "-Rdd" it and then "-S" it again. If you just "yaourt -Syu --aur" - some might not work after this. So why can't those programs work after an update without deleting them before?

Works for me that same way.

Ipad3, using iPhoto, running the latest IOS6, I'm a photographer, please tell me why has the delete (X) been removed in iPhoto?

Ralph, again thanks for the input, but I respectfully disagree. I have been using iPhoto with the iPad3 since it was launched. I have taken and imported at a minimum 6-7k pictures and have used the same methodology of editing and deleting photos (inside of iPhoto app), using the delete (X) on the task bar. I'm an IT project manager as well as an certified software consultant, in other words, I have a better than average knowledge and understanding of apps and the functionality. My only point is that something that was quite functional and very user friendly has now become far more difficult. It was only 9 bucks and a pretty good little piece of software, I'll just find something else that is less time consuming and will check back for iPhoto update and from time to time. Again, thank you for your feedback.
