I have the same here on Debian 10.4 Xfce with ristretto 0.8.3.
I open an image in a 188 image folder on a distant CIFS mount, it takes 20
seconds before I can see the image.
During this time, ristretto is frozen.
If I set up ristretto to not show thumbnails (Ctrl+M), it still takes the same
time as it wants to preload them anyway.
Reducing the amount of images in the folder opens faster but I see it
depends on other images, it's not very convenient when I quickly want to
see an image.
I thought of some ideas:
- Reuse already calculated thumbnails (reuse of Tumbler ones? or of previous
ristretto session?).
- Load thumbnails after main image in asynchronous mode. Don't load them if
they are not shown.
