Thumbnail generation should be a background process #43

Open kohsah opened 6 years ago

kohsah commented 6 years ago

Currently the thumbnail generation for a uploaded attachment runs as a browser response initiated process. The problem with this approach is that if for whatever reason a thumbnail is not generated the upload process of the actual document is affected. The thumbnail generation shoudl be a background process.
