Many themes and users make no use of these thumbnails and there is a way to disable this function.
Go to Settings -> Media and change the values for Thumbnail size and Medium size to zero (0). Just enter 0 in the textboxes
Thumbnail size Width 0 Height 0
Medium size Max Width 0 Max Height 0

Leave Large size as it is and save changes.

On a new upload via WordPress there will be NO thumbnails for this new file in your uploads folder anymore.
