Description

When nautilus-dropbox is installed when using the "new folder with selection" context menu and the selection is of many files, nautilus-dropbox makes the whole system unstable, blocking it for a while. This does not happen with nautilus without dropbox.
They have some solution for this.
Thank you and greetings.

Research direction

Reproduce the lock in Nautilus by installing nautilus-dropbox, selecting many files, and using the “new folder with selection” context-menu action. Compare the behavior with Nautilus without Dropbox; the issue names no source files or tests, and done means preventing the system from becoming unstable during this operation.
