I think, if you touch a file, Dolphin and thumbnail.so recreates the thumbnail; it doesn't know that the content has not changed. If the thumbnail is recreated, Dolphin reloads it. Can be that that's loads of work... > As a sidenote, with 10'000 empty files in the folder, the refresh takes a > few seconds. It would be interesting to know if Dolphin knows it can skip looking for thumbnails of empty files.
