[Bug 96483] nautilus search is horribly slow

[Joachim Noreiko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

I've started a search for 'jpg' in my home folder.
The same search with the 'search for files' tool came up with results pretty quickly.
It's now been about 5 minutes, and there is still hard disk activity and a busy mouse pointer in the window, but no results.
On the offchance this was due to the file extension not being searched, I've also tried words I know are used in the names of some of my files.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
