[Geeqie-devel] View-as-icons - slow response

2009-03-08 Thread Colin Clark
Hi

I'm using Geeqie with Ubuntu 8.10 on a standard desktop. I find I'm 
getting a slow response when looking at sub-directories with a large 
number of files.

If I leave the Files Pane in its default setting (with or without 
thumbnails), clicking on a file changes the image preview very quickly. 
If I click on a new file before the preview is completely rendered, the 
rendering of that image is aborted and rendering of the next image is 
started immediately.

However if I change the Files Pane setting to View As Icons, rendering 
of the preview is rather slower, and clicking on another file has no 
effect until rendering of the current image is completed. Not only that, 
but the rendering pauses towards the end of each image, and the final 
sections are rendered very slowly - the process taking perhaps 2 or 3 
seconds per image.

This effect first appears in svn 1394. The --enable-threads option makes 
no difference.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Colin Clark...

Hi Colin,

 few questions:
- is the issue still present with the latest svn revision ?
- how many files are present in your subdirectory ?
- what is the mean size of the images (and types) ?
- are all thumbnails generated (read from cache) ?
- are you using color management ?
- what is the content of your geeqierc (or geeqierc.xml) file ?

FYI, I have no such issue here.

Regards,
