I tried between 4 and 16 MBps depending on the number of files (not folders=

Found it, it's related with the glib20 update. See here:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D675168

I found it from in its NEWS, it's in the "Overview of changes from
GLib 2.33.2 to 2.33.3" section.

It looks like we will have to search for a better solution. By either
patch in GNOME 2 stuff or patch in glib20 to make it fallback
(compatible). The developer will not create a fallback for old stuff's
sake.
