How much? I am running E3 1226 @ 3.30GHz, 4x8GB PC3-12800 Kingston HyperX, 256GB SSD 860EVO. Integreated GPU (P4600) ...

Maybe MP is not for me... switched to classic

Same file in empty folder is faster

really faster?

Yep. check the video... white screen is the lag between starting MP and showing the pic (vitage car)

PS: if image is opened from MP browser it works as fast as expected

Same file in empty folder is faster, but my feeling is that XnPortable is still faster.
Here is a video: https://youtu.be/V8cXXNOWlIs

On the left the big folder - opened with MP.

On the right single file - opened with MP, Portable and MS Viwer.
MP is slowest of all...

I have a folder on my HDD with 1384 items (most of them photos). I just ditched FastStone which is painstakingly slow...

After a few reviews I read, and fact I was already using XnView Portable I decided to give MP a go.
Compared to FastStone it's fast, but opening a single image takes seconds ...
