KDU is flat out 3 times faster to decode than OpenJPEG. The ratio is consistent throughout the whole session.Since switching to Imprudence (which uses OpenJPEG), the difference seems negligible- though I don't explore as much as other people do.Don't be too shocked about the decoding speed: this is *not* throughput of textures in the viewer. The data measures only the speed of decoding blocks of compressed images, making complete abstraction of network activity, object handling, etc... all things that are anyway identical in the 2 cases. The KDU viewer doesn't feel 3 times faster because, deep down, texture decoding is not the limiting factor that drive the perceived performance of the viewer.Still, in super texture heavy regions, I suppose this could make a difference.
Do you have a "super texture heavy" region in mind that this can be checked in ?
