A workaround is to use an ExternalMethod and the same logic that manage_rename delivers, but avoiding the reindexing part, in favor of a further catalog updating. Ausum

When you're doing a large-scale operation on a folder that contains hundreds of objects (or more), the resources required to redraw the ZMI are surprisingly immense. I suspect there may be other issues at play here as well, though I haven't read far enough into the code to know.
If the objects are CatalogAware, renaming (internally a delete and create again operation) means reindexing all the objects. That is very, very expensive job for a Zope-Server.
