I had some time and made another test, this time in Gusty. I repeated the test several times, so the user and sys time are almost constant, no big change between the several tryes. Here you have in one folder only one file, a png file, and in the other folder more that 2000 thumbnails. The real time of course it does not matter, because it has to do with how long I keep the window open.
