--- Comment #2 from Petr Mladek <[email protected]> ---
The thumbnails are there for the user convenience. IMHO, it is only small part
of the disk space and energy that is spent in this are these days. I mean all
the windowmanager effects, complex graphics, and design. I am afraid that the
world goes this ways.

Regarding the disk space. It would be great if you could provide some static.
It wonder how big part the thumbnail takes in normal documents in average.

Regarding the cpu usage, it is questionable. In fact, the bundled thumbnail is
an optimization here. It is produced only once, from already preprocessed data
and then used on many systems. If it is not there and user want the thumbnails,
the windowmanager would need to run LO on all systems working with the file, do
the rendering and producing the thumbnail for the system cache. Again, it would
be interesting to see some statistic numbers here.

Jérôme, could you please provide some statistic that would support your idea?
