[QUOTE="rtv, post: 100630, member: 12309"] Please think about the tone you chose.. In your way I'd reply: "The well designed MP has gained performance for sure but I am insane enough not to find the hidden "use folder thumbs" config setting. You're even two times wrong here: The thumbs.db is a result of inappropriate Windows Explorer settings and therefore totally unrelated to MP. If you'd like a meaningful answer instead of ranting: - often folder.jpg aren't following the standards and are extremely large - MP only needs thumbs of 2 certain sizes - very often people have their music collections on extra drives, external (even low bandwidth USB) drives or network shares / storage. Access to those folder.jpg was slowing down MP considerably - 99% of the music users have to live with NTFS - this doesn't feature dancing b-trees or similar directory indexing functions to speed up accesses to thousands of deep subdirectories. - some people consider faster storage (even ramdrives) to speed up daily used features - all thumbs can easily be relocated thanks to the new service provider nuff said [/QUOTE]
