My computer is not very fast (no OpenCL available), so it often takes
several seconds for Darktable to render an image with some non-trivial
development.
Sometimes I want to compare two (or more) different development options
of an image. I either use duplicates and switch between them in the
duplicate manager, or click around in the history for one image. I often
want to quickly flip back and forth a couple of times to see the difference.
However, it seems like Darkroom runs the whole rendering process each
time I flip between duplicates, and at least parts of it when clicking
around in the history, which is very annoying when that takes several
seconds.
Is it possible to cache rendered images in darkroom mode? It seems like
it does some caching in lighttable mode.
(I have 12 GB RAM and a 64 bit system, so there should be plenty of
space to cache a couple of full screen bitmaps in memory.)
