Windows Vista thumbnail caching is sloooooow!
 

Man it's rediculously slow. It takes 3 freaking hours to pick a thumbnail from a dir with 2000 jpgs in it. Its allmost unusable. Vista is ALOT slower then xp!!!! :2 cents:

It is vista, what did you expect?

an upgrade. :1orglaugh

have you expected something different?
hope you did not pay for that shit

i have seen this done on a new machine and it was fast
its probably your machine

Get a better pc

I have a new machine with Vista on it and its fine, as mentioned odds are its your machine!

Yes, your machine could be the problem. All you need is just an upgrade. But I would stick to xp for now.

switch to a mac you wont regret it ;)

upgrade my ass. I have a dual xeon 3.06 with 2 raptors running in raid with 2 gig ram and a x850pe. It's Vista. The only thing that might be causing the problem would be the fact I upgrade instead of clean install. Everything works fine it just caches thumbs really fucking slow.
