(3) if gimp slows down during use, try (3a) making sure the tile cache size is at least close to the available memory you have - e.g. on an 8 Gigabyte system I have a 7 G tile cache; (3b) in the Undo History dock, click on the "clear undo history" button at the bottom of the dock, and see if gimp gets faster. This slowing down will probably be fixed in gimp 3.0. (4) drink less coffee. Gimp may seem slow if you have too much coffee. (5) Number of CPUs/threads mis-detected on some platforms - go to Edit/Preferences and check that Number of Processors to Use is not more than the number of processors you have.

Clearing the undo history helps for me. Make sure that your tile cache size is close to the size of physical memory - e.g. my laptop has 8G of RAM and my tile cache is set to 7G. (The 32-bit version I think can't go much over 3G tile cache) Liam -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/ Ankh: irc.sorcery.net irc.gnome.org www.advogato.org ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

In Preferences/Colour Management, I had enabled 'Try to use the system monitor profile's. I disabled this, and it seems to work OK now.

Same with me. I'm switching back to 2.7.x for the time being.
