Bug Description
On the latest file-roller in Ubuntu 13.10 (I'm using Xubuntu) if you open a zip file that contains a large number of files (30.000+), and double click on the column separators (IE: Name) it makes X unresponsive, the CPU jumps to 99% and once the program is done who knows what the column is resized to 1px making it dissapear.
This is a bit disconcerting for end users as their computer becomes unresponsive, and if they look elsewhere their column has disappeared.
If the end user closes File-roller then the size of the columns is saved (who knows why someone thought this was a good idea is a question for another day) so when they open another zip file the column that was resized to 1px appears missing.
This problem affects any column.
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
