0.70 CPU load very high (Linux)

[Klaas]

Ahoi,

even when "doing nothing" (having been started after a reboot as first program, showing no pics..) v0.70 causes a CPU load of about 30 %... It soon rises to 100 % when I switch to a directory with a few images in it or do anything I'm used to do with XnViewMP... (No significantly increased memory load, though, as far as I may say…)

My system:

AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 460 Processor
8 GB RAM
Ubuntu 14.10 with Xfce desktop.

XnViewMP was installed from the 64 Bit .deb via "dpkg -i".

I deleted the old database files before starting 0.70 first (as I do from time to time and whenever I upgrade to a new XnViewMP version). So I didn't even have XnViewMP scan my images archive by browsing through its directories, but it already causes a much to high CPU load...

Same here, openSUSE 13.2 x86_64 . It occurred only in browse mode, closing the browse tab will make everything back to normal.

Thanks fpr your reply. At least I'm not the only one!

Maybe, but unfortunately the browser view / browser tab is rather essential for my daily routine with XnVIewMP…

I switched to the 32 bit version of 0.70 under Linux - same problem. And I gave 0.70 (64 bit) a short try under Windows 7 64 bit on the same (dual boot) machine - the same issue again as far as I can say, without having tested that very thoroughly.

So I at least preliminary downgraded to 0.69 on both operating systems.

It would be great if this bug (if it is a bug and not my incompetence) could be fixed - XnViewMP is such an amazing, ueseful (and cross platform) software!

Hello

Sorry, but I have also that high system load of 50% on my windows XP SP3 system.
I also deleted xnview.ini file so that XnViewMP 0.70 started from scratch.
But I still have that high load.

Best regards

Same problem here.

I see it's been fixed in v. 0.71... How long will it take for the public release of that version?

Thanks!
