Reading this article makes me notice the difference between Windows and OSX/nix. Windows is allowing the user to pause and schedule their copy operations, whereas OSX and nix just provide a copy window with the ability to cancel the operation.
Even when I want to delete something in Win7, I get the message "Discovering items...". In that time, my *nix box has already deleted it and moved onto the next task.
I wish they wouldn't spend so many expensive developer hours to make an efficient pausing mechanism on your copy and move operations when instead they could focus on why the copy and move operations are taking so long in the first place.
