--- Comment #15 from Harald Judt <hjudt at xfce.org> ---
Last time I worked on thunar code, that reload stuff was a big mess and did not
even work for jobs (copying, moving files). What makes it more complicated is
that there are folder reloads and file reloads. I couldn't fix it completely,
and if you change one part, it often breaks the other parts. I believe the
proper solution would be to create a reload queue that gets processed regularly
(e.g. while idle) and confined to a single place. That way, reloads could also
be prioritized if necessary and perhaps unneeded/duplicate reloads could even
be avoided (network accesses for example are quite expensive regarding
performance). It could be more complicated than the current implementation, but
the current implementation looks also complicated and is hard to understand, so
maybe it doesn't matter.
