Thanks Larry,
Some test program as you suggest could do.
But why getting files from the web and not just files from my K1. Maybe
HDR to make it even larger.
My catalogue is quite big, around 45k.
I noticed that importing 20 K1 files takes a certain time, than if I
delete them from disk,and repeat the import action, than it goes faster.
So I have to use fresh files for a test on the same computer.

Dear group,
I need a new laptop and want one that is faster on Lightroom processing than my
present HP pavilion with i7 and SSD
I think of ordering several "mobile workstations" upto 2000euro and do a
comparative test with them.
Thinking of i7, 8th or 9th generation / 4 or 6 cores/16 or 32 GB/ 512 or 1000
GB SSD
I will keep the best and send the others back.
But how to test?
I was thinking:
* measure time to import 20 K1 DNG files
* or export 20 K1 DNG files to high quality JPEGs
I wonder if you good set up a standardized benchmark that you could
crowdsource. The best would be a set of files that could be downloaded and a
plug-in.
One of the things that I find takes the most time is when I run auto-tone on a
group of files, then do the first change to the exposure. I am using smart
previews.
To me the ideal plug-in / script would:
Make sure that it is in the specific test catalog
make sure the target directory is empty
possibly make sure the test catalog is empty
note start time
Import a standard set of files
note time
create smart previews
note time
auto tone
note time
Decrease highlights by one large click
note time
create 1:1 previews
note time
export full resolution jpegs
note time
A couple of things that would affect this:
The size of the catalog can dramatically affect import times as it checks for
existing photos
it’s not linear, possibly order n^2
Would that be a good approach?
Or better tests?
Tanks in advance, greetz, Jos
