Hmm. Could you be more specific about what you mean by update quick enough?

I'm asking because the key thing about this library (despite whatever else is wrong) is that is opens and is ready to work even with 500 GB runtimes.

Is it drawing slowly?

Is it opening folders slowly?

Is it populating thumbnails slowly?

Are the item counts on folders filling slowly?

The library is now incredibly multi-threaded. It is often doing over 40 things at once scanning and populating things in the background. Months of work went into making sure it is the fastest library anybody has every seen. Compared to P7, this GUI loads instantly with 100GB runtimes, versus 5 minutes. Compared to P7, this GUI can handle 1000 GB runtimes, while P7 would just immediately crash.

The #1, by FAR, request from the user community was to deal with gigantic runtimes, find and show content FAST, navigate FAST. Almost everybody using it says it is fast.

I really would like to know which of the above is happening. And you should open a ticket with SM. There are many people with corrupted Flash players, out of date Flash players, etc. Maybe this is the problem.

The thumbs will be bigger, and there will be more options coming.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
