The new system-config-printer package with performance improvements is in place now:
http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/hardy/system-config-printer/
Please download and test these packages.
Note that this is not a fix for the bug. A possibility to cancel the scan in system-config-printer is still needed. Please also do the performance test of the two scanning methods as I have described earlier in this bug report.
