Nautilus won't leave the current folder until it's done computing every subfolder's size!

Bug Description
Steps to reproduce:
- open a folder
- notice as Nautilus statrs computing subfolder sizes ("...." is displayed instead of the size until the size is computed)
- immediately double-click on one of the subfolders
Expected:
- Nautilus should stop computing the subfolders' size, and immediately open the requested folder instead
Observed:
- Nautilus stupidly keeps computing the subfolder sizes, and only when all of them are computed (and displeyed) then it will open the requested folder
So sometimes when you enter a folder it may take a while until you can leave it, and it is not for a reason.
