After the system starts, the first time I see the picture, the startup speed is slow.

I think this is because the program is not started first when booting. So when you click on the image to open it, the program will be loaded, so it will be slower.

I was just trying to see if there are some elements that could otherwise influence this behaviour. My best guess is that the .net runtime takes time to start + the jit compiler just needs time to convert il to machine code

in otherwords there're not many ways to fix this :/

In the 2.2 version, I've optimized the startup procedure to load the visual elements first and the rest later, to make it feel faster.

Additionally, I'm currently working on rewriting from WPF to the Avalonia platform (and also add macOS support). Avalonia supports Native AOT deployment, which have faster startup time and smaller memory footprints.

It will take a while to convert it, but when it's completed, you can expect a new version with smoother performance and start-up time.

PicView 2.2.1 There are indeed improvements, not the .net version. However, compared with honeyview, the speed of starting the first picture for the first time is still slower. But I'm still looking forward to your new version, and I'd like to thank you for noticing the questions I raised.

.net 8 version. It seems a little faster.
