Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Seen in: Dapper, Feisty, Gutsy.  I started with Dapper (Moved from
Debian) and avoided Edgy.

Laptop: It will drain the battery, spin up the fans, etc.

In this specific case, I noticed it because I need about 90% of my P3
933Mhz system to watch some higher resolution videos with vlc or totem
and had several second video skips (even though gnome-video-thumbnailer
is niced) when watching a video.

Interim solution: Switch to a different directory that doesn't have
downloading videos.  This won't help if you happen to be downloading the
video to the desktop though.

Proposed solution: If a file has been modified previously in the last N
seconds and has been modified again, do not attempt to thumbnail the
file.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
