Opening multiple files a layers (Ctrl + Alt + O) takes much longer compared to earlier GIMP versions
Environment/Versions
- GIMP Version: 2.10.30
- Package: Installer from gimp.org
- Operating System: Windows 10 Home (21H2)
Issue Description
When I open multiple files as Layer using Ctrl+Alt+O it takes about 30 seconds for all files to open in GIMP v2.10.30. This was much faster in the previous GIMP versions. I installed GIMP v2.8 on the same laptop to verify this and here is what I found.
Open as Layers with 22 .PNG files of average size 2.5kb:
- GIMP 2.10.30 -> takes 30 seconds
- GIMP 2.8 -> takes 3 seconds
