Have  you tried using the smaller directory and then addng a few (hundred)
images at a time, letting the scan finish and then repeating.

I wonder is plasma is using a new method of caching the data, or the old
cache got corrupted, so it has to reindex the whole directory again. It's
never had to do 150000+ files in one go before because the directory has
grown organically. Now, for whatever reason, it seems like it is trying to
do the whole lot in one hit.
