I don't know how the Unison GUI is structured, but from these symptoms
it seems possible that the GUI thread doesn't run independently of the
file-copying thread, but instead the GUI interaction only gets to run
after each file is finished.  That would account for why the issue shows
up only when copying very large files.  If that is the case, how much
work would it be to arrange for the GUI interaction to not be blocked by
copying really large files?
