Yes it will limit you to available ram for the image buffers; but if you're

I followed Nicolas' suggestion and recompiled babl, gegl and gimp with
CFLAGS="-march=native -O3" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -O3". The computer
didn't blow up or anything. But I can't say whether Gimp runs any
faster.
The idea of optimization seemed promising and I found this thread:

Yes, that's fine, just avoid down
You might want to try running gimp with GEGL's swap turned off, this will
avoid filling up your drive with cache files:
GEGL_SWAP=RAM gimp-2.9
If you don't have OpenCL set up forcing it off will give a bit of a
performance boost (due to a bug in the detection code):
GEGL_USE_OPENCL=no GEGL_SWAP=RA

Thanks very much! for the tip on how to sort in top.

There is a little bit of c++ floating around here and there TTBOMK.

Warning: Untested
If you build/compile GIMP and key libraries (e.g. GEGL, BABL) from source,
maybe you should try
CFLAGS="-march=native -O3" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -O3" ./autogen.sh ...
instead of the usual
./autogen.sh ...
This may, or may not, make a noticeable difference.
But if I was con

When working with full-size camera files (3906 X 2602 px, not large
compared to more recent cameras), Gimp runs at 100% CPU. Painting a
brush stroke takes forever, my system swap drives fill up completely,
etc. And yesterday Gimp filled up 15GB's worth of empty space in my
home directory, leaving m

One thing I wish Gimp had is a better eyedropper tool for checking
color values. That is the one thing, practially the only thing, that
PhotoShop had (and presumably still has) that I wish Gimp had. The
PhotoShop eyedropper tool simultaneously showed RGB, CMYK, and LAB
values, at user-settable 8-bi
Here's one thing that I've long wanted:

*Relative Layer Positioning

I'm unsure about the name for such a thing, what I had in mind is:
- Often, I don't care much about exact positioning of a layer in the
canvas.
- I care more about where it lies with respect to another layer.
- I
