I've encountered the same problem. I have Ubuntu 8.04 (yes, I will upgrade to 10.04 soon). The only application I was using at the time was Disk Usage Analyzer. So it seems the bug is not related to PS or PDF files as I have seen above. I've just noticed that evince-thumbnailer is taking 100% CPU usage. This is to confirm that the bug exists at least in Ubuntu 8.04 with all the upgrades until to this date (6th of June 2010).
