Question

Answer 1

Use lazy loading by only loading the ones you show at once in any given moment - or use a background thread to perform the loading while keeping the interface responsive.

Answer 2

If your layout allows, use a table view and a custom cell that holds several thumbnails. That way you can use the tableview controller's built in methods to manage the lazy loading. I'm pretty sure that is how Apple does the thumbnails in the photo library.
