Hello, all. Starting out with Julia.
I need to display some pseudo-color images so I'm playing around with the
ImageView package. It seems to be running very slowly. Displaying one of
the images from TestImages can take nearly a minute:
img = testimage( "cameraman" )
Gray Images.Image with:
data: 512×512 Array{ColorTypes.Gray{FixedPointNumbers.UFixed{UInt8,8}},2}
properties:
colorspace: Gray
spatialorder: x y
julia> tic(); ImageView.view( img ); toc();
elapsed time: 50.552471225 seconds
Zooming and other interaction with the mouse is similarly sluggish.
I didn't expect this for a 512x512 grayscale image. I am running Julia
version 0.5.1-pre+2 and ImageView is running into some issues with
deprecated functionality and namespace conflicts. However, the above did
not generate any warnings at all but still took 50 seconds to display.
This is all under Linux. Any ideas why this is happening or if I could be
doing something wrong?
