Title:
  No thumnbnails showing, Nautilus processor usage goes up to 100%.

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The thumbnail previews for files like JPGs, PDFs etc are not showing
  up in nautilus. Tried deleting ~/.thumbnails, and also tried creating
  a fresh user. Same behavior was observed.

  Here is a log from ~/.xsession-errors :

  (nautilus:1956): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_object:
  assertion `G_VALUE_HOLDS_OBJECT (value)' failed

  (nautilus:1956): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_value_get_object:

  mentions the same error, but no malfunctions.

  Interestingly, if I open a directory inside nautilus where there are
  supposed to be thumbnails, I see nautilus' processor usage goes up,
  sometimes to 100%, and it goes down when I close it.

  I suspect it is also eating up my hard disk space, but can't be sure.
  I'd love some help on this. :)

  I'm using Natty.
