We should do image processing in a separate thread to keep the UI responsive at all times. You could argue that if we always do image processing in small chunks, it won't be a problem, but that prevents us from more freely tweaking the chunk size. The bigger chunks we do at a time, the better we can use the CPU and memory caches. IMO the current use of the main loop for image processing in GIMP needs to stop. The migration to GEGL will be a good time to fix it. / Martin -- My GIMP Blog: http://www.chromecode.com/ "Automatic tab style and removed tab title bar" _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
