Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp 2.10 very slow

["Rick Strong" <rnstrong primus ca>]

An interesting variable:
- My first download was from the GIMP direct download site.
- My second download of 2.10.0 was from a mirror site.
Who knows? I think cleaning out remnants of 2.8 16 and putting 2.10.0 in a 
new folder did the trick.

Not to dismiss your experience, mine is different:

GIMP 2.10.0 opens in about 7~8 seconds (first opening of the day; subsequent
openings are faster).
The "Export As" dialogue opens in 4 sec. Ram usage is about 2.07 GB, 26%.
WIN 7 64 Pro, SP 1, 8GB RAM

My initial install experience with 2.10.0 was bad. It opened *very* slowly
and then wouldn't open at all.
- I uninstalled 2.10.0.
- I uninstalled 2.8.16 (which supposedly had been uninstalled or
overwritten).
- I installed 2.10 to **a brand new folder.**
- It runs like a charm (so far).

Might be worth a try.

Slow I think is too generous. I would say 486 about describes the
performance.
Win 10 64. TR 1950x, 32 GB RAM, 2 R7 370's.

We're talking a minute waiting for export dialogs to finally become visible,
and
when they do a majority of the time they aren't on the foreground. You have
to
go hunting.

I had 2.8 on my previous build, no problems whatsoever. My previous build
was a
FX8350 with 24GB of RAM. Same video.

2.8 = Lamborghini Aventador SV

2.10 = Ford Pinto

That's with 8 GB more RAM, 8 more cores, and 16 additional threads.  And a
whole
bunch of additional PCIe lanes. Source material on nvm's vs platters. I
surely
wasn't expecting this slow.  I am going to reinstall 2.8 now.

At this point I am just basically saying me too. Not expecting assistance on
a
work around, I'll try the next version when it comes out.

Also 2.10 is a RAM pig.
