Currently system load is > 200 :-)
Opening my test album starts one or two kio_digikamthumbnail threads. The 
kio_thumbnail processes are created when I scroll down the album view. I.e. 
I'll immediately ask for thumbnails for most of the pictures. Then very 
pixelised thumbnails start to appear everywhere (probably generated by 
kio_thumbnail), and after a few moments the normal high quality thumbnails 
appear.
