(Get the code!)
Lucid on my laptop has the same problem. Every time it resume from suspend, g-s-d spend a huge amount of time on check the cache, where there are 28,000 files.
1) It is not just a problem of too-high-limits. Indeed, on my laptop, maximum_size=512, which is the default value, however, the actual cache size is
du -sm .thumbnails/
664 .thumbnails/
which is well above the limit.
2) It shouldn't perform check too frequent. If thumbnails will expire in 180 days, they only need to be checked once a few days.
3) If it do have to check files, this task should be done when the computer is not idle, instead of the busy moments of every booting or every resuming.
