performance issues deleting multiple files

Post by shadowpower »

Using xnviewmp 0.78 on windows 10 32b I've noticed that there is a big difference between xnview and xnviewmp when deleting a lot of files. When I delete a lot of files in xnviewmp, xnviewmp freezes for some seconds after the files were succesfully deleted (the thumbnails are updated but you can't do anything for some seconds), the freeze doesn't happen if I delete the folder with the files inside instead of the files, more files = longer freeze and for some reason xnview doesn't have that freeze or it's minimal. I'd like to know if there is a setting or something that might reduce this freeze

I think the delete is broken and has serious issue's. I'd be very carefull using it.

I've been trying some things but it's pretty random. Using another pc windows 8.1 64b I tried deleting a lot of files and the freeze was there, closed xnviewmp, opened again deleted a lot more files and the freeze wasn't there. I can at least be sure that xnview classic is more consistent in that aspect.
Another thing to note is that when xnviewmp froze it used only 1 core (50% on pc with 2 cores, 15%~ on pc with 8 cores) while xnview classic used more but there was no freeze.
