Entering a path in cmake-gui causes a long stall when the directory has many files. For example, /usr/bin and /usr/lib have about 4000 files, and when typing a path to /usr/lib/libfoo.so, the gui locks up completely for 15 to 20 seconds. This is not a file system issue since listing the directory is instantaneous. I wonder if cmake's directory handling or completion algorithm has quadratic complexity.<div>
