Incredibly slow OCR performance #46

Hi, I'm running the latest release on Windows on a well specced machine. The only unusual thing is that I'm testing using this on japanese anime with japanese subs, hoping to use the software to make anki cards.

I'm finding that it takes several minutes to transcribe even fairly simple lines, the following took over 5 minutes: image

I've tried with both Tesseract which should run locally, and with OCR Space, both are equally slow which makes me suspect that the setting isn't being respected, though I have checked the .ini and it matches the setting.

I also notice no spike in cpu usage while waiting. What process should I be looking out for?

This can't solely be because the text is centered can it? Or is this expected?

Another 5 minutes for a half accurate result: image

So, the website has a link to a google drive containing a slightly more up to date version of the program, cool <.<
