Confirmed.

Engrampa (default XFCE archive manager) internally uses "tar -t" (which calls "gzip -d"). This is 4 times faster than DC!
Also, there is no way to cancel opening archives. The only way to cancel is to kill DC :(

But this can easily be fixed by TURNING OFF the option "Open *.tar.xxx archives in one step" in Configuration->Plugins WCX->ZIP->Configure
