2.46 lagging / very slow

Post by vanderzee »

the version 2.46 is lagging and very slow to browse and open folders

if images are really big like 5000px or more it takes very long to open the browse, view folders and etc.
xnview was awlays fast on my pc

cleaning or removing catalog doesnt help
clean install doesnt help

i dont want to use older versions due to annoying bugs pestering them

suggestions?



using windows 7 ultimate x64 / updated / all C++ versions


thanks

yes, 2.46 is slower

and not only that, it freezes constantly, has trouble opening pictures bigger then 3000x5000px
and now i also noticed that sometimes at cut (not copy)+ paste files go missing

i tested with 2.42, which works fine, but has annoying but with little black dots on white background
2.39 and 2.25 have no perfomance issues, just sometimes they crash or fail to start
