Performance tanks after viewing a few hundred photos #74

This might be a bit of a corner case, but it's something that affects me so I thought I would file it. When I'm scrolling through endless wallpapers, eventually the performance gets really poor. It seems like GTK is having trouble rendering that many widgets, maybe? I know there were talks of an Android-like recycler view for GTK but I don't think there's anything upstream—but that would really help the performance. Alternately, reverting back to a vertically paged interface perhaps once a certain number of images is hit might help the performance?

@cassidyjames I have the same problem, And I really love the infinite scrolling, unfortunately, I'm not sure how to improve the performance :cry: Definitely a recycler view widget would be awesome, I was thinking in a way to try to disable the pictures that they are not shown in screen, but I'm not sure if it is possible :confused:
