The very first synchronization with 0.0.32 will take a while and the whole CPU of the N900 since it has to download all the profile pictures from all your contacts.

After that, profile pictures are only downloaded if somebody changed it, otherwise it's never downloaded again.

It's very weird some of you have some crashes I've tested this version a lot and hadn't had a crash.

@s4br0s0 are you sure your contact that doesn't synchronize anymore still have WhatsApp active? some people are not paying renewals and losing their accounts. If somebody doesn't pay you won't see him again until he does.
