Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.8) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux The inpainting plugin in Digikam uses the greycstoration algorithm. This algo supports multithreading but when running it through Digikam, it only uses one CPU. I compared the behaviours of Digikam 0.9.2 and greycstoration 2.5.2: only the latter uses more than one CPU. Expected behaviour: spawn one thread per CPU.
Lynda, Witch digiKam version you use ? Gilles Caulier
0.9.2-final from Ubuntu gutsy repository
OK. This is fixed on new digiKam 0.9.3. For indeep problem in CImg library comming with 0.9.2, multithreading has not been used. With 0.9.3, 2 separate CImg thread are used. Cimg library have been updated of course... Gilles
Gilles, Restauration and Resize using Greystoration work fine with 2 threads at 100% CPU. Inpainting launches 2 threads as well, but the combined load never exceeds 50%. It seems the threads exclude each other mutually, one goes up, the other down and vise-versa. Gerhard
With 5.8.0, in-painting image editor tool was been replaced by a Clone tool. More details here : https://community.kde.org/GSoC/2017/StatusReports/shazaismailkaoud Gilles Caulier
