Does it do that at every startup/access of the picture directory, or is it a
one-off?
My experience with it, it's every time you open a folder including PEF
files.
Just open the folder, and go make a pot of coffee.
By the time you've drunk 3 or 4 cups, it will have rendered the
thumbnails and you're good to go.
No more problems until you change to a different folder.
YMMV.
