Vista - Increase thumbnail cache?

Increase thumbnail cache?

In XP, I could go to any of my picture folders and the thumbnail was instantly viewable, but Vista seems to have a bit of lag displaying them. When scrolling down a folder with alot of pics, it seems to be generating thumbnails as it goes along. Is there a way to increase the cache size so it behaves like XP?

My thumbnail cache was only 103meg according to disk cleanup. I went ahead and cleared it, but the problem remains. I have a folder with 145 pics weighing in @ 180meg and the thumbnails start to lag when I scroll about halfway down the screen.

Give it a few seconds to catch up - and make sure the thumbnails are not set to not be saved in that particular folder....

I have to stop and let them catch up. XP never had this problem How do I tell it where to store the thumbnails?
