I adapted some code yesterday to use this and it’s really a fantastic speedup. 
I was previously doing something where I was only loading the first 30 files 
and adding a “load more” option at the bottom of the list it was taking so 
long, but with this I can load the entire thing again. I will be having a look 
around the code to see where else I can use this!

Though not strictly necessary since I can do it once I get the data out of it 
myself, it would be awesome to have an option to sort the array by name or 
creation date. ;)

You should really do a section in the documentation on all the different ways 
to optimize xojo with the various parts of the plugin There are so many little 
things in there that are excellent but so many overall that I’m sure I”m not 
even aware of all the ways I could be doing things faster, and I’ve been a 
subscriber since almost day 1 of them!

I did some testing recently that discovered that your JPEG to string methods 
are about twice as fast as the build in fromData stuff in xojo for decoding an 
image, but that the encoding of JPEGs is slightly faster in native xojo. I 
didn’t play with the settings all that much though.

Thanks,
