SUMMARY Unfortunately in this present form this tool is not very useful as it takes 10+ minutes to complete the transformation. Even changing some of the parameters and checking the result is very slooooow. Are there any plans/possibilities to make this tool more responsive? I'm using the latest build of DK on my Windows 11 computer that is quite powerful (see bellow). Also support for AMD Radeon GPUs would probably help a lot.
