Option "Sync account" makes owncloud very slow

[LukeOwlclaw]

When choosing "Sync account" from the drop down menu syncing makes the owncloud app respond very slow. Same is true when syncing is active under Android -> settings -> account -> owncloud (is probably just the same?)

Once I could not open a folder at all when sync was in progress (could not reproduce though). Usually switching directories is just veeery slow.

Device: Nexus 4
"develop" branch

Logcat is full of entries showing which files are updated. Like this:

When you choose the "Sync account" option in action bar menu a full syncronization is launched, so you are seeing this kind of entries (one per folder). But you should be able to switch directories and using the app without problem while the sync is being done.
However, we will take a look in order to check the behaviour that you tell us.

Cannot reproduce anymore. Closing.
