Public bug reported: It has happened twice. Nautilus hangs or freezes the system when a folder with PDF documents is opened for display. Preferences are set to display thumbnails. For some reason, nautilus does not seem to able to generate the thumbnail Or it takes endless time to do so. Deleting the PDF from the folder restores normal display.
