Nope.

But I don't think the thumbnail data is saved there only. I did find that folder (in fact two different instances of it) and removed it, but after testing again with quicksilver (and even navigating to the folder with finder in thumbnail view mode) the folder (or equivalent) did not appear: "sudo find /private/var/folders|grep thumb" returns nothing.

After doing that (and also deleting QS caches) the QS hang still doesn't happen. Whaaaat?

If this delay is caused by creating Quicklook previews, then the
relevant caches a located somewhere else:
/private/var/folders/{some-short-string}/{some-longer-string}/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/

try deleting the file in there and check if the delay comes back.

Just an update: It seems that whenever I restart the system, I get the
temporary hang (for about 20 sec) when entering a folder full of pdf's with
QS. But after that, even if I restart QS, and even if I delete the QS caches
(~/Library/Caches/Quicksilver/ and ~/Library/Caches/com.
blacktree.Quicksilver/), it loads the same folder instantly. How on earth is
that possible? If this is not caused by something being cached to those
files, then what??

Have you tried it in B69 to confirm for sure that it�s a new problem?
It�s available from

I've tried and it and I don't get any delay at all (less than half a
second).

I deleted the caches before trying (i.e.
~/Library/Caches/Quicksilver/
~/Library/Caches/com.blacktree.Quicksilver/
)

But now it's getting hard to reproduce the problem. Even if i delete the
caches, both B69 and B70 are loading the folders with many files inside
like a breeze (which makes me think that stuff is being cached somewhere
else?). I'm puzzled.

OTOH, while trying with different folders containing many files, I got a
different (maybe related?) problem. I tried to navigate into a folder
with 189 files (jpgs and a few avis copied from a digital camera, of a
total size of 1.34 GB) and I got a brief beachball and then a crash (i
sent a crash report). The second time (after starting QS again) it
opened the same folder quickly and showing the thumbnails properly.
   Maybe this was random; I tried another folder with 900 pictures
(almost 3GB) and no problem, took about 4-5 seconds to open.

I'll keep trying to reproduce the problem.

BTW something that may be useful to know is that after the first
long delay before moving into the folder, if I try to access the
folder again after a while it works with no delay (so whatever
causes the delay seems to be something that is being cached).

Yes, it should cache that type of thing for a while.

Could anyone try and see if they can replicate my problem?

I don�t have a folder with 400 PDFs. :-) The closest thing is
probably a folder with 176 music videos, but I see no delay
whatsoever going into that. In any case, I�m on an SSD, so I don�t
think I�d be able to reproduce the delay (if it�s disk-related).
Hopefully someone else can track it down.
