[Bug 1004601] [NEW] OBEX file browsing extremely slow

[Steve White]

Public bug reported:

With recent updates to Ubuntu 12.04, OBEX file browsing of Bluetooth
devices is working again, but still not quite as well as it was in the
10.x series.

This is a Samsung NC-20 working with a Nokia C5.

In particular, OBEX file browsing is extremely slow, at least using Nautilus.
It was never exactly snappy, but it was nowhere near this slow in Ubuntu 10.10.

>From the Gnome bluetooth-applet, click the item corresponding to my phone, and pull down "Browse Files..." .
An icon for the phone promptly appears on the desktop.
But after this, things grind to a halt.
It typically takes a couple of minutes to open a directory, even a directory containing a single directory item.

100% reproducible on this system.

Other Bluetooth functions are quite fast.  For instance, I browse the
web over BT DUN connections, and it feels like a fast modem.

Please have a look at this!
We're almost there!
