When running the application under normal operation, not running  under gpu there is no issues, all thumbnails  appear instantly.

This NVidia stuff have never been tested.

To be honest, it's the first time to seen this kind of feature...

There is no reason to see digiKam take a benefit of NVIDIA specific video card. This is not the job of a portable application... At least all must be delegate to Qt framework to handle this case of use.

You can try digiKAm 7.0.0-beta2 which is now compiled with last Qt 5.14.0 where we can see, perhaps, an optimization here...
