Bridge CS4 is slow, slow, slow (so is Photoshop CS4)

With Bridge CS3 it took less than ten seconds to build the thumbnails of a folder with 85 image files. With Bridge CS4, it takes almost two minutes. Anybody having the same problem?

And where have the preference options for the thumbnail quality gone? I wanted to set the thumbnail quality to 'low' for a speed-up but I cannot. The options just aren't there in the Bridge CS4 preferences dialog ... and it takes forever building those thumbnails one after one, about one per second. And as if that wasn't bad enough already, Bridge CS4 extracts more than hundred thumbnails from only 85 raw image files, according to the text appearing in the status bar next to the spinning radar icon. There is something seriously screwed up.

And Photoshop CS4 is sluggish, too (no matter if Enable OpenGL is on or off).

So by and large, CS4 is a major disappointment. I hope for some updates REAL soon. For now, I am back to CS3. :(
