Thunar is a file manager for Unix/Linux desktop belonging to Xfce project. This is a clone respository from git://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar with my adds and changes.
I tried to rename 130,000 files (dataset) and faced the following problems:
On selection of the correct naming scheme the pop -up window spends time populating a table with already loaded previous naming and starts (in my case) counting up in the new name column. This in my case took more than 1.5 hrs just to populate and not renaming a single file. For something that doen't even make sense to know before hand.
after the above mentioned list finally was fully populated and the rename button unfrozen. on clicking the renaming stopped at 2/130,000 and stopped responding.
Which basically means that I spent above 2 hrs renaming just 2 files.
In my case system resources wasn't a limiting factor as I have a 5900x, rtx 3090 OC, pcie 4.0 ssd, ubuntu 18.04 LTS, etc.
I request to remove the tabling system as it does not affect or impact in any way postive and would avoid waste of time for such a minimal task.
Note: That I enjoy all the other aspects of the package and find it very useful and productive.

Hope that this makes it to the update list.
