Hi Tyler,
as we never experienced such delays when loading data from the local disk, all I can guess is that you are maybe loading your DICOM images from an external/network drive or query/retrieve them which can make huge differences on different network connections of course. You can check the resource monitor of your OS to get an idea of the system component that seems to be the bottleneck. Another possibility is the size of your data in case it doesn't fit into RAM, which seems to be the most noticeable difference in the specs you posted. RAM should be at least twice the size of the uncompressed (!) data to prevent swapping. Anyways, this should also be easily identifiable in the resource monitor. Best, Stefan ________________________________ Von: Tyler Bradshaw <tbrads...@wisc.edu> Gesendet: Mittwoch, 18.

When I installed MITK 2015.5.2 (or 2016.03.0) on my Windows laptop, loading DICOMs was painfully slow - probably 20 times slower than on my PC. It takes several minutes to load a DICOM series, which is not practical for regular use. But it's not just my computers, I've recommended MITK to several colleagues, and more than half of them have experienced the extremely slow loading times. Any idea what's going on? I would like for more of my lab to be able to migrate to MITK.
