Can anyone tell me if the server is not powerful enough for the job? Or maybe it just needs some tweaking to get better performance for loading small files.
Any advice would be appreciated.

This is PLENTY powerful for this task. If you have any specific questions on tuning/setup, please feel free to ICQ me.
EDIT: For small files, I recommend using ReiserFS and a raid scheme to improve total IOPS of diskperformance. You could also consider mounting the memory as a ramdisk, depending on the total amount of thumbs being served. Lots of good tweaking options here!
