Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever confirmed|0 |1 Status|REPORTED |CONFIRMED --- Comment #3 from Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> --- (In reply to Petr N. from comment #2) > If Dolphin already creates some ram based index The data needs to be stored in permanent storage eventually so we still would have the issue of extra wear on the hardware just by navigating the file system. > date+time when the file/thumbnail parent folder has been accessed Saving the information only once per parent folder would not work with the current implementation because we do not store thumbnails by parent folder. The stored thumbnails do not contain information about where their respective file is. The thumbnail is stored per file so no matter where the file is encountered, we will be able to load the thumbnail. There might also be privacy concerns if from the thumbnails alone one could identify both when the file was last opened as well as where the file is stored. In any case I will mark the bug report as CONFIRMED because I think it is a fair request even if I don't know how one would proceed here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
