Multi-core support for thumbnail generation

Post by Kaminari »

Hello,

I'm a long time user of XnView, especially as a thumbnail browser, and XnViewMP is very promising. I enjoy its Unicode and 64-bit support. I'm not sure about its multi-core capabilities though. On my Core2 Quad 3 GHz, it seems that thumbnail generation is limited to one core only. The other three cores are sitting idle, which is a waste.

Is there any plan to optimize performance for multi-threaded thumbnails? Or did I miss some hidden settings?

Thanks in advance!
