PIL's "show" method simply saves the image to a temporary file and
asks Windows to display it using the default BMP viewer. if it takes
30 seconds from cmd to image, it's probably a PSP-specific problem.
if the display is part of a GUI application, I suggest using the GUI tool-
kit's image display functions (e.g. PhotoImage under Tkinter; see Image-
Tk for interface code).
if you just want a quick view under Windows, you can do
import ImageWin
im = ...
w = ImageWin.ImageWindow(im)
w.mainloop() # this will block until the window is closed
