Slideshow Widget Uses too much RAM #20

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The slideshow widget pushes memory usage from excessive to extreme levels 
depending on the side of the image directory used.  If possible it should 
scale the images down and also must clean up after they are unloaded.

The problem lies in the Java/FX image handling and scaling algorithms.  Scaling 
a 
large image consumes a huge amount of memory and garbage collection takes a 
long 
time.  Sun is apparently aware of and planning to fix the issues in the next 
release 
or two.
