Large-folder benchmark, compared with 104.74 sec using a classic decoding path.
Performance Lab
Real-world speed for real-world folders: ingest, RAW decoding, grid display and culling fluidity.
Performance in motion
Speed protects attention.
Performance is not a benchmark for its own sake. In culling, speed keeps the photographer inside the shoot — looking at images, not waiting for software.
The Performance Lab is where the numbers meet the gesture: opening a large RAW set, making the grid usable, moving through photos, rejecting obvious misses and keeping momentum.
Performance Lab
Large folders should still feel light.
Two short benchmark videos belong here: one for ingest, one for culling through a large RAW folder. The table gives context. The videos should make the result obvious.
Internal grid benchmark capture. Replace with cleaner public Lab visuals when the final demo set is ready.
A 17.86 sec classic grid-opening path reduced to 2.28 sec in the current test set.
A performance claim to support with real videos, real files and clear context.

Early internal measurements. Camera files, device generation, storage speed, preview availability, cache state and folder structure affect results. The goal is not a synthetic benchmark; the goal is to keep the photographer in the flow.
Fluidity demos
Show the interface moving, not just the numbers.
Prepare two proof videos. One gesture, one result. No theatrical editing: show the wait, show the movement, show the folder becoming usable.
From card to review, without unnecessary drag.
Show opening and preparing a large RAW set. This video should prove that the first step does not already feel heavy.
Move through a heavy folder and keep the rhythm.
Show real culling movement in a large RAW folder: grid, full-screen review, Pick / Reject / Maybe, and fluid navigation.
Context
Performance depends on real conditions.
Camera files, preview availability, storage speed, device generation and cache state all matter. That is why the Lab should show real folders and real movement, not only synthetic numbers.
The performance goal is not to win a table. The goal is to make the first pass feel immediate enough that the photographer keeps looking at images, not waiting for software.
Performance media slots
Two benchmark videos to prepare.
Use these two slots for the main performance proof videos on this page.
