ID 610959 - Nuke hangs when loading some Alembic files

Follow

Problem summary
Nuke hangs when loading some Alembic files
 
This only seems to happen when using the scene file browser for the classic 3D system, using Python or the new 3D system both work without issue.
 
Customer reported version
nuke.16.0v6
 
Customer reported platform
rocky9
 
Steps to reproduce
 
1) Download the attached .abc file

2) Open Nuke

3) Press R and navigate to the downloaded alembic file
 
4) In the scene file browser, select Create all-in-one node or Create parents as separate nodes
 
Expected behaviour
For Nuke to quickly import the alembic file
 
Actual behaviour
Nuke hangs for a long time, and will eventually import the alembic file
 
Workaround
Create the ReadGeo2 node via Python, and it works instantly:
 

nuke.createNode("ReadGeo2", 'file <path/to/alembic>.abc')
