Public bug reported: Recently moved to a Canon T2i SLR, which shoots 18 megapixel (6MB) images. A simple thumbnails listing now takes several minutes.
Triaging this bug, this comes from parsing exif data on every image. The solution is to split the is_image() function into a "fast" one that can be use on thumbnail listing (when we have to examine more than one file), but keep one that parses exif data when we're just loading one file. ** Affects: pictor (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Dustin Kirkland (kirkland) Status: Fix Released ** Affects: pictor (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: High Assignee: Dustin Kirkland (kirkland) Status: Fix Released ** Changed in: pictor (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical ** Changed in: pictor (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: pictor (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Dustin Kirkland (kirkland) ** Also affects: pictor (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Critical Assignee: Dustin Kirkland (kirkland) Status: In Progress ** Changed in: pictor (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Critical => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952186 Title: thumbnails print takes a very long time when images are huge To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pictor/+bug/952186/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
