I reopen the bug. It is actually the case Nautilus GENERATES thumbnails
disregarding of the setting. It's especially annoying when it happens
while eg. downloading the file: it re-reads it numerous times and wastes
system resources.

Please see the attached screenshot: everything is very clear.

The setting's value has been there for ages. Still the previews are
generated and regenerated on file change.

Title:
  nautilus file preview does not respect file size limit

Status in Nautilus:
  Invalid
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  Nautilus displays thumbnails regardless of file-size limit set in
  nautilus' preferences. The setting above it (show always/never/for
  local files only) does work; it is only the file-size limit that isn't
  respected.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:  Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
  Release:      10.04

  $ aptitude show nautilus | grep Version
  Version: 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1.1

  What I expect to happen: nautilus respecting setting for thumbnail
  file-size limit.

  What happens instead: nautilus does not respect setting for thumbnail
  file-size limit.
