--- Comment #18 from Bo <bo.shvydky at hotmail.com> ---
All right guys, the bug is still here but I'm not pretty sure whether it's a
bug, actually.

So, deleting ANY file via Thunar causes tumblerd to pop up and consume disk
READING queue heavily. I have not seen the source code yet, but according to
I/O stats it starts to access each of previously generated thumbnail.

Now the problem is:

~/.cache/thumbnails/large$ find . ! -name .  | wc -l
7105
~/.cache/thumbnails/normal$ find . ! -name .  | wc -l
12122

Takes a lot of time, but eventually tumblerd completes its mission.

Clearing the cache obviously helps to reduce the side effects of such a
behaviour, still it's not a panacea.
