Gimp. On any system.
- seba_dos1 1y agoGIMP takes pretty long to launch indeed, but it's still under 5 seconds on my 6yo XPS 13. Even on my Cortex-A53 phone it doesn't reach 10 seconds.
- deathanatos 1y agoGIMP takes ~2s to start on my 2016 Linux laptop. (Though I do think it takes significantly longer to start on my 2024 MBP…)
- MalbertKerman 1y agoOn my personal 2017-vintage i5-7200U, GIMP opens in under 5 seconds. On the computer I had for my last job, a 2023-ish i7, about 30 seconds. The problem was the shitheap of corporate security software that bogged down the zillion file access operations during application startup, not the app itself.
- bombela 1y agoNotice how everybody replying says "less than 5s". As if anything done on a machine going through 10_000_000_000 (10 Giga) instructions per seconds should be anything but perceived instantaneous, for it's finite lifetime human user.
