XnviewMP working incredible Slow

Post by TGB_72 »

XnviewMP is taking way more time to load thumbs in the browser and also to load images in the viewer (any type). I notice this drawback after v1.8.0 (the last fine version). I don't know the exact version where the problem was intruded but certainly was between v1.8.1 and v1.8.3 and persist until the last v1.9.2.

I'm using XnvewMP on Windows 10 64bits with a ryzen 5700x and 32GB of RAM.

It work slow regardless of the number of files, the browser take some seconds to load the thumbs not matter if there is 1 or 50 pictures, anyway I'm not using it with folder with more than 200 files. Otherwise I've set XnviewMP to open in browser mode and yes then from there I use to open images in the viewer. Like I said before now I'm using v1.8.0 and works with no problems, this issue was introduced after this version.

I can't reproduce. Please send us your xnview.ini?

Hello Pierre, I made a fresh OS and XnviewMP installation and the issue seems to be gone, at least v1.92.works fine just like v1.8.0, thanks for your support.
