Problem opening big picture


Recommended Posts

I don't see why this is being pegged on "reading the file size." I think these terms are being thrown around as panaceas when they are just terms to describe a method in a solution -- not solutions themsevles

Paint.NET already loads everything on a background thread so that the UI can responsively report progress. If you're loading big images then they will take up a lot of RAM and thus your pagefile will probably get pounded on. Look at the hard drive light on your computer -- if it's blinking a lot, then there you go. You just need more RAM in that case. This will especially be the case if you're loading multiple images. Paint.NET is currently something of a RAM hog (proportional to image size in terms of pixels anyway), that's just the facts right now.
