First startup after windows boot is extremely slow

[xnview]

Qt team has replied "It is normal on Windows due to the fact it loads the dependent Qt dlls at start up and this can also cause other dlls to be loaded."

Do you have same delay for first startup with other Qt based app like 'db browser sqlite'?

Are you referring to DB Browser for SQLite, Pierre?

I don't know what app used qt
But tested with this testapp (I'll call it this since) and DB Browser for SQLite @XnTriq provided

could you try to put this file in XnView MP folder, and start it?

First cold start time after a windows cold restart (rebooted 3 times, run one target a time)

• testapp (application.exe): ~1.5s

• DB Browser for SQLite.exe: ~6s

• XnViewMP.exe: ~9s

I have not 10-20 seconds after a reboot. Please try another app using Qt libs like https://sqlitebrowser.org/

Tested with "DB Browser for SQLite - .zip (no installer) for 64-bit Windows"

Same slow as xnview, first run takes 16 seconds, second and later runs takes 1 seconds to startup

spec:

From Super User (“xnview lags when I start it”):

Most likely it is trying to access a network resource and can't find it. Usually because the server it's on isn't responding or no longer exists. Timing it more accurately can help troubleshooting as the delay will always be over the timeout value.

Try and see what it is trying to open or access. I would suggesting using Sysinternals Process Monitor and/or
Process Explorer.

A 15 second delay is often from trying to access an IP address that doesn't respond but should be reachable. You can use Sysinternals TCPView to see what address it's trying to access (open a connection to).

Thanks for the tool
TCPView didn't show any connection from xnview
promon shows that xnview takes tons of time loading some dlls

Here's the full log (this run takes 8 seconds btw):

[xnview]

it seems that libQt5Webkit is slow to load... And XnConvert delay? (it doesn't use WebKit)

I didn't found xnconvert.exe in xnviewmp folder

Thank you for your patience and continued support, BK201

I didn't found xnconvert.exe in xnviewmp folder

XnConvert is a separate application which consists of XnView's batch processing engine (no view and no browse mode etc.). XnConvert is also based on Qt, but comes with less DLLs. v1.94.0 is the latest release.

It's crazy, for XnView MP 64 bits after first startup

Windows 10 Pro (20H2): no big duration

Windows 10 Pro (21H1), slow device: no duration greater than 0.09

Do you have an anti spam and/or anti virus app?
