I see 2 things: - optimizing Hugin ie optimizing the users GUI experience - optimizing the tools used by Hugin, ie optimizing the creation of the panorama after clicking the "Stitch" button or launching a task, optimizing the CP creations, ... Actually I guess Hugin is mostly a shell that controls tools, so most of the optimization could be done by optimizing those tools.
I usually stitch 2-3 pictures, or 6-7-8 pictures if I want a (almost) 360-180° using my fisheye, and I run each project one at a time. So eventually I usually wait for the pano to be created, so to me if the stitching process took 30s instead of 5 or 10 minutes, it would be great. >From the GUI point of view, what takes me some time is loading the pictures and automatically finding the CP. I usually don't do much, except modify some CP if the preview shows some big errors. 2009/7/9 Ryan Sleevi <ryan+hu...@sleevi.com <ryan%2bhu...@sleevi.com>> > The hugin executable can be optimized for the more intensive tasks, which I > agree with you in that it's probably: > - Optimization Maybe it's indeed needed for huge projects, but for my small ones it's usually just fast. > - CP editing/fine tuning I don't feel like editing / fine tuning is that slow. I don't know whether there's a "fine tune all CPs", but if it does exist then some optimization might be good, as even on small projects you easily have at least 20 CP. > - Preview (Fast and regular, although regular is less of a concern > now that fast preview is in) Indeed. I haven't checked the fast preview though, but I guess it's fast. > - Celeste (I haven't dug too far into this, but I understand it's > both linked as a lib and standalone. Sound correct?) If it's an external tool, then we should "just" optimize it, not within Hugin. > - To a lesser degree, some of the basic imaging code for > caching/scaling the images. If it takes time when you click a button in Hugin (eg when loading the images), then it should be optimized, as it would enhance the user's experience. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
