Not as good in Gimp 3.2 RC1 but nowhere near one-and-a-half hours. A big image, c. 8000x13000 pix with layers 32 bit and initially about 6 GB in memory. Two minutes example: https://sendvid.com/vu577ftk (This is as good as watching paint dry but in real time.)
That is a linux appimage. Maybe a Windows thing ?
Nice movie, Rich
Your result is absolutely within the limits of my ability to stay sane while learning Gimp.
Did you select more than the background layer?
I selected all 5 layers, and a couple of them were totals.
Maybe that makes the procedure repeat the same process 4 times more than needed - or add all the pixels up to a monster?
At the other hand would it not be smart enough to avoid that...
The 1 second claim was reckless. My PS CS5 is long gone as Adobe insisted on having it's monitoring system loaded on my PC while I utilized an old lifetime license. So Adobe was totally cleaned out for more than a year ago, except for the DNG-converter, which seems to be harmless.
So, my claim was based on an inner video showing PS straighten an PSD with many layers while I turn away for a sip of coffee, not for more than 5 seconds...
