thumbnails loadling slow #620

Open jaimejimbo opened 8 years ago

jaimejimbo commented 8 years ago

When I open a folder with lots of images (~1500), caja load thumbnails as expected. But when opening another folder after the first, it doesn't load thumbnails instantanely, but starts loading them one by one and it can be seen how thumbnails start to apear.

My thumbnails are loading the same as always. If the thumbnails are not made yet the thumbnailer will have to generate them one by one, which can take a while if there are a lot of them. Make sure you have not changed the maximum thumbnail age in org>mate>desktop>thumbnail-cache (in dconf-editor) to zero or this will have to be re-done every time.

If you just got a change in thumbnailing behavior, then which version of Caja was this, and if you built it yourself from git master, was this before or after https://github.com/mate-desktop/caja/commit/2d8ba15b3905be710036bb729b7acaa7e8e62814 Which as if 3PM on Aug 22, 2016 is the last commit listed to mate-desktop/caja/master.
