           Summary: BQM wastes a lot of memory when adding over 3000 files

When you add a lot of images to the BQM, it get stuck and wastes a lot of
memory. I guess this is due to the thumbnail generation, which takes an awful
lot of time.
Do we really need to display this little thumbnail in there anyway, it doesn't
give the user any advantage, all operations are executed on the queue itself,
so selecting individual images based on their thumbnails is no use case here.

Maybe we should add an option for turning them off in such dialogs, like in BQM
or in the progress dialogs (ThumbnailBatch, FingerprintsBatch).

Reproducible: Always




OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.38-ARCH
