After High Sierra, Finder takes a minute or two to show file after save

Every since upgrading to High Sierra, whenever I save a file to the desk it takes finder a minute or two to actually show that file in the GUI. The file is there (I can see it from terminal) and if I try to save the file again, I get the 'file already exists' warning. What is going on? It sometimes takes two minutes for the file to finally "show" in finder.

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.3)

It does seem to affect many users. So I would have to say yes. You can always quit Google Backup and Sync and see if you have the same problem.
