Marking invalid. The supplied test case works for me. 

Yes, it's possible that at some point in the past, thumbnails were slow to
render, but urgent site issues should be discussed on IRC while they're
actually happening, not on Bugzilla 6 weeks after the fact.

Maybe at some point in the future we will have sufficient historical service
time data to let us confirm or maybe even diagnose this sort of thing after the
fact. But at the moment we are mostly limited to real time analysis.

The browser should limit concurrency to about 5, so say if it takes 2 seconds
per image, then that would be 1 minute 40 to load all images. Is that what you
see?

We only have 60 threads on 48 cores for the whole image scaling cluster, so
obviously if you want 250 images at a time, it's going to take a while, even
with unlimited client-side concurrency. If you don't want it to be slow, then
don't do that.

Maybe ms5 will hit an I/O limit before we get to 60 threads, but it's clear
from the profiling data that ms5 is not permanently in such a state. The
average thumb.php service time measured by MediaWiki is only 156ms.
