Hello Sven, I agree with you, but wouldn't it be nice to have once on a day something similar to the "file > automation" dialog in Photoshop? There one can choose for example contact sheet or batch processing. In batch processing one can select an action (i.e. gimp-script), a folder for loading the files for processing and one for saving them, and in which kind the naming is to be managed, and so on. I think, this could be something for later plans in the far future.

Let X bre a Huge Amount of Memory (tm) taken by said image, and Y be A Couple Kilobytes (tm) used by scaled down version Your proccess: - Initially using X memory duplicate image -> now using x * 2 memory. scale image down, with UNDO active -> using x * 2 + Y memory discard copy-> back to using X memory. My proccess: - Inittially using X memory - Disable Undo for this image - Scale down: Using Y memory. - Save copy - Revert: Using back X memory. As you see, they are roughly equivalent, exepct that your method, in the intermediate steps, use twice as much memory. The slowdown complained about is probably due to Tile swapping .

I would go with duplicate image, scale the clone, save then close. No undo problems that way, xcf version stays untouched, both disk and memory.
