Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

You are lucky, it just took me 22 seconds to open the /usr/share directory with 333 entries. This is with a fresh install of 10.10 64 bit on an i7-980 with 12 gig of ram. 10.10 Updated every day. If there is a solution to this please post the information.

46 seconds to open /usr/share/doc with 1,500 entries. If there is a setting somewhere that would make Nautilus usable I would love to know where it is.
