Is there a way to force preload Thumbnails?

[raccoon]

When using any of the Thumbnail views (Medium, Large, Extra Large), one must first drag their scroll bar up and down, scrubbing at it for many minutes like hand washing dirty dishes, in order for all of the thumbnails to load and populate. Does Everything have a built-in dishwasher to reduce redness and irritation to my poor dishpan thumbs?

I have thumbnails disabled, so can't test it, but I think changing the Load thumbnail priority: might help here
(Menu:Tools > Options > General > Results)

While that setting does help with the zippiness of loading thumbnails, it doesn't actually cause them all to load autonomously. Only when they are scrolled into view for the first time, on demand. That is, I still have to scroll from top to the bottom of the list, but not too fast mind you, in order for every thumbnail to be loaded into the search results.
