MUCH better performance wise. I think that with this version most of the loading related problems are gone for me.
Navigating and skipping a bunch of images does no trigger more the slowdown/semi freezing that i was reporting: it just does the grain for a fraction of second and it recover fastly.
Loading a big folder of images now is faster, a 800 image folder is just a flash wait for the first image to show.
The most improved is archive loading. Large files of 180 mb take just 1-2 seconds, light 20 mb archives are loaded istantly.
(all of this in 'high' setting)

I will use the trial as my main image viewer for the next days and if it works well i will buy a copy.

I think that some things still needs to be addressed tough:

  • CPU use is kinda high : without any image loaded is in the range of 2/3%, with a (static) image loaded it's 4/5% and the system process WindowServer shoot up to 4/5% also. If i open another image folder the cpu use will bump up of 2% (this is cumulative: even if don't see a scenario for me with more than 2/3 images open, every time i open a folder the cpu usage will bump up of around 2%)
  • Full screen on multiple monitors, specifically the bit that i can't seem to make a full screen on the secondary monitor by placing the window on it and going full screen. Preview does it. (in general, os x system full screen sucks for multiple monitors, so i would prefer a less integrated custom solution. But i see that's not an easy choice: i hope it can be addressed, maybe with Apple finally waking up on this issue)

Thanks for the good work.
