Alexandre - on this list many simply peoples (I mean not programmers or tech addicted guys) just come to ask questions or talk about problems they got using GIMP - they need simply answers. Generally they just observe and ask, they don't bring accusations. Simply put - for John Doe - GIMP 2.8 (not 2.8.x) is slower than GIMP 2.6 or 2.7. This what any average GIMP user can observe withe a free look. They simply don't use 2.8.x from Partha, they don't compile, they don't follow the development progress - they just need a plain simple answer to a simple question. I didn't say that GIMP is slow because of GEGL (or GEGL is slow) I just explain that GIMP is in a transition to a new graphic core and developers need bug reports if possible not just words like " ..GIMP 2.8 is slow".Without a bug report or a test case such affirmations are useless. That's all. You also use this kind of tone in GIMP development related articles in libregraphicsworld, and this is why I don't understand sometime your appetite for polemic. I will never argue about "...GEGL is slow" - in fact in 2.8.1 GEGL operations (such Gaussian Blur perform really fast [ ..using input boxes not UI sliders ]). > Meaning: "No developers know that, because your assumption about the > transition effect is incorrect" :) ;) I will not comment this paragraph because using formal logic it's easy (and persuasive also) to build an argumentation - but no-one need that. We have better things to do. Let's end this out-of-topic craziness here. 2012/7/20 Alexandre Prokoudine <alexandre.prokoudine@xxxxxxxxx>: > On Fri, Jul 20, 2012 at 1:04 AM, SorinN wrote: > >> Anyway, nothing is perfect, at least for you Alexandre - so let's >> (unnecessary) complicate the topic, if not related to GEGL transition, >> in a logical consecution next question is - why is slow then ?. >> >>>I'd like to know what developers know that :) >> >> Now this is the real point over the pretty letter I. >> Well, you are free to ask them all - who am I to stop you ? >> Probably not just developers but all peoples who changed 2.6 for 2.8, >> but go on, ask developers just to be sure. > > Let's try again: > > <irony>I'd like to know what developers know that :)</irony> > > Meaning: "No developers know that, because your assumption about the > transition effect is incorrect" :) > > The bug is known, the fix isn't trivial, mitch didn't have the time to > do it for 2.8. > > If anyone's willing to have a go at it, please join IRC to discuss it. > > Alexandre Prokoudine > http://libregraphicsworld.org > _______________________________________________ > gimp-developer-list mailing list > gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list -- Nemes Ioan Sorin _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
