Title:
  Terrible wrestool performance with very large executables

Status in “icoutils” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: icoutils

  If I use gnome-exe-thumbnailer to thumbnail a moderately old World of
  Warcraft folder (which contains several multi-gigabyte executables),
  the computer tends to thrash as the whole file is loaded into memory.

  I'm not 100% sure if it's possible, but it seems like performance
  would be greatly improved if only the initial part of the file is
  needed to extract the icon.
