If you select a non-empty directory and delete it, it will take a huge
amount of time because Cyberduck will list it recursively to delete file
contents in each subdirectory first. This is very inefficient for large
directories and can take hours to delete!
There is a trick on FTP servers to delete non-empty directories that
should be used.
