2013-02-06 19:18:17 Rick Reznicsek description On my Sony Vaio VPCCA (Intel Sandy Bridge), when I select 37 JPG-images with together a size not more than 5 MB and open them with a rightclick and "open with GIMP", GIMP opens them very, very slow. After having opened all pictures it takes about 30 seconds until GIMP is ready. The menus in the unity global menu don't work anymore, and I have to rightclick into an image to get the options. In the background GIMP, unity-panel-service and compiz go mayhem (see screenshot attached) and together sometimes take up over 150% CPU power. Working with images is impossible and GIMP sometimes accepts my changes of an image, sometimes not. This is very annoying!! I not sure, but this could have something to do with with crappy unity/compiz, because I always have similar problems with other programs too. They are slow, laggy, the global menu is not working right, and sometimes the program simply crash without saying anything. On my xubuntu without compiz this shit never happens with these programms, neither with GIMP.
