I've run some tests and concluded that JPEGCodec.createJPEGDecoder(new FileInputStream(file)).decodeAsBufferedImage() is faster than ImageIO.read(new File(file)) . I have a test image that's 1978x2500 that loads in 375ms using JPEGCodec and 735 ms using ImageIO. I set ImageIO.setUseCache(false). Is there something I'm doing wrong or is the old package faster. I'm writing an application to read images/slideshow, etc and speed is very important. Do you have any tips or suggestions? I'm running Java 6 u1 on Windows XP Media Center. 128MB VRAM, AMD Athlon 3800 Dual Core X2, 1GB RAM.
