Right now the GIMP core is being reworked - has largely been reworked; next will probably be "non-destructive editing", and I really hope then there could be an on-disk journal for recovery and for saving undo history across sessions.

[Gimp-user] for me a sad case - xcf -file lost
Hi, friends, working with my Wacom-tablet for 20 min without saving (of course as a .xcf - file :-) ) GIMP got hung up and closed. No chance to save my data. If important: I tried to use the bucket fill and was trying to select the colour. GIMP go on strike (may be because it is 24:00 or 00:00 Is there anywhere a hidden place on my disk where GIMP save my work in the background (like Open Office) ?? And: It would be great to have this restore-function in GIMP too when restartíng a hung-up GIMP. To talk about or to solve problems like this is (in my eyes) more important than an annoying sad-case - discussion Thanks for help!

Thank you for your advice Gunold If Gimp is slowed down by memory issues in startup, I don't see how you can realistically expect to use it with real images that will quickly require a couple of hundred megabytes. After startup, with no images, my 64-bit Linux Gimp uses 60MB or memory (+ 20MB shared) but even simple image quickly double this. Starting Gimp also implies some file activity, so you have some I/O contention instead. What are the slow machines displaying when they limp along? loading plugins? checking fonts? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP on Thin clients
Try Edit>Preferences>Enviroment (it's the first card in dialog box) There You'll control maximum size of image, size of cache etc. In theory there is another solution - Xprograms can be run on one machine and displayed on another. This was philosophy behind Xserver and Xclient but i've never heared about anybody running GIMP this way.

Excellent post sir. Just because one is in software development, doesn' t mean they understand professional image editing workflow.
