Linux file managers manage to be nice and snappy. On my machine, KDE's Dolphin, on an NVME, takes, maybe, 4 seconds to open and scan a folder that has more than 9000 folders and files.

What's Windows' problem? It has no excuse. Maybe, just maybe, the Windows Explorer, plus the stack it runs on, is utter garbage.

My experience was opposite on directory with 30k files via SMB. Windows Explorer took within a second while Dolphin took 30 seconds. Nautilus took over a minutes iirc.
