Feature request

Which Nextcloud Version are you currently using: (see administration page) Nextcloud Hub 10 (31.0.6)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am using Nextcloud for a private cloud with a low resource server; the preview generation for the whole filesystem would actually saturate the machine resources

Describe the solution you'd like I would propose to add a parameter to limit the amount of previews generated for each iteration, like preview:generate-all --num=5000 to elaborate at most 5000 files

Describe alternatives you've considered Halting the generation manually after some minutes
