check out darktable.org and never look back :-D

+1 ;)

I tried out Darktable. I couldn't make heads or tails of it. For instance, never
figured out how to get it to actually output a processed image.

So I dropped it and went with RawTherapee instead. :-)

But neither of them have the speed of the proprietary program, neither support
using multiple cores, neither have the photo management chops. (Well, near as I
can tell about Darktable.)

Unfortunately, I have to agree. Darktable has the most un-intuitive and
confusing interface I've seen in any program. A shame.

unlike many other high-quality open source programs, darktable comes with excellent documentation.

very much like all other open source programs that come with documentation, nobody seems to bother to read it :-D

exporting a processed image happens with the "export" feature in the lighttable view (surprise!). and not only does it support multiple cores where it matters (during batch processing and export), it even does openCL rendering if your graphics hardware allows it.

if you think it's the most unintuitive ui, try blender for a refreshing sense of perspective :) powerful programs tend to have a learning curve...

ok, enough ot blabber, i'm a darktable fanboy, and i'll leave it at that :-D
