XnView MP starts noticeably slower than XnView Classic

Post by electro1 »

Is there any way to speed up the loading process? Or to preload the app in memory and keep it prepared just in case without showing on taskbar when not needed?

QT Framework, unfortunately slows things down
XnView Classic doesn't use QT hence it's faster
AMD Ryzen 3 3300X 3.8Ghz, 16Gb DDR4, RX6600XT with Dell U2520D at 2560x1440@60Hz scaling 125%

Especially Viewer. It's not a deal breaking issue, just noticeably slower even on SSDs. I got used to XnView Classic's fast startup for years.
