Got this strange behavior when deleting a folder of pictures after burning them to DVD (so about 4,5GB of various size scanned and digital cam images) in 7.0 beta 4.
Image of task manager showing memory usage: http://bildr.no/view/51516
totalcmd.exe was using over 800MB of memory and using around two seconds to delete per file before I killed the process. As you can see CPU utilization was maxed, too.
Similar to http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=14258 execept this was not a USB drive but rather an internal SATA drive.
Sys info:
-Windows Vista ultimate 32-bit
-Core2Duo E6600 @ 2700Mhz
-4GB of RAM, 3GB visible to Windows
-Deleting from secondary SATA drive (not boot drive, but 'd:')
-TC started 'as an administrator' (got the username^ in the program bar)
-TC 7.0 b4 (now RC1)
-TC was deleting to recycle bin even though 'F8/Del deletes to recycle bni' option was selected and I'm *positive* I shift-deleted (I pretty much always do.)
-Installed TC7RC1 and tried to reproduce but was unable to.

Could be a virus scanner - when you delete to recycle bin, all the files are moved, not deleted, so they all get scanned by the virus scanner...
