Same issue here. Ubuntu 16.04.
Moving 500 images (totalling only 130mb) takes >5 minutes and only shows the "preparing to move" dialogue.
Exact same thing in Thunar takes only a few (~3) seconds!

Tested on a SATA III connected Samsung 840 SSD.
I experienced the same issue across multiple devices with different storage media.

Also it does not matter if it is Drag and Droped or copy and pasted.
