2 seconds delay before calculating folder sizes

Hello! (With "Show Folder Sizes" option On) When you open a drive which contains several "massive" folders XYplorer may become unresponsive. So you can't open any folder in that drive for a while.
An option to delay calculating folder sizes would help. (If such an option is possible)
0 seconds by default. I would choose 2 seconds delay, maybe 3. Enough time to find and open the desired folder.

Good idea, I'll add that to one of the next versions. :tup:

Next beta has a tweak (UI setting comes later):

Code: Select all

    + Show Folder Sizes: Added tweak to delay the folder size calculation when navigating 
      to a new location. This would delay it by 2 seconds:
        ShowFolderSizeDelayMsecs=2000

Hello! Sorry I didn't reply sooner.

It kind of does.

Now it's calculating right away,
but is responsive.
So, it's Ok.
