The “Loading Album Data” phase takes a very long time
Thanks to K.R. for discovering this and the solution.
- when Aperture is switched to “List View”, it take huge amount of time for RawHide to start the processing, however
- when Aperture is switched to “Grid View”, RawHide works excellent fast (not only does it start processing faster, but also the processing itself look quite faster…)
thus it can make a huge difference when converting large selection of images / several hours at least..'
When the RawHide option “Place in Albums” is used, RawHide goes through all images in all images during the “Loading Album Data” phase. For sure this can take a significant amount of time when there are a lot of images in albums. The fact that the view being used has any impact on this loading is curious.
