For some time now I've been living with slow processing speeds for RAW images on my 10yr old + PC. I do do most of my processing with QU, using the Refining RAW feature and then using the Image Editor to complete the process. Thus each image has both a RAW Refinement and a Filter associated with it.
I now have purchased a tailor-made PC with M.2 memory (16Gb, 20 threads) and drives throughout and with the latest version of an i7 processor. I could have gone for an i9 (I think that's right) but that put the cost up too much.
With the old PC, for 8 images with refine and filters, 2.75 minutes to rebuild the thumbs. The new PC takes 0.53 minutes, about 5x faster. The new PC with Auto multi threading took 70 seconds to rebuild the thumbs of 20 images. They were all from a Canon 80D, about 32MB each.
I'd welcome comments and comparisons for other QU users - and Mike too please.

Sounds great! I have a bunch of 80D test shots so I created a folder with 8 80D raws so I could time it. It took 24 seconds to build the 8 raws. That's with my Ryzen 9 3900x.

Thanks Mike. I assume they were images without any filter.
I just did the same test, 8 images, no filters, it took 20secs, faster than yours!
So it looks like my new PC is OK. Relieved as it cost £1500!
My local PC shop were very helpful, they built it; I've know the guys there a long time.

17.5 seconds to process 8 RAWs from my Nikon Z6 (24.5 MP). No filters. This is on an i7-6700K, 4G, 4 cores, with 16G memory. Windows 10. Probably about 5 years old. The problem is my directories usually have A LOT MORE than 8 images!  |

Thanks for checking. I have some Canon 600D images of about the same size - 24MB. 8 took 12 seconds on my new PC.
My processor is a
Intel® Core™ i7-12700 Processor
25M Cache, up to 4.90 GHz. 12 Cores
... for the tech nerds information ;-)

Hello Fred, long time no see!
Windows 11, mainly because that's the latest. However I do prefer the W10 interface. It's taking a little while to get used to W11 and not having certain features.

Yes. No filters. I would expect yours to be a bit faster since my Ryzen 9 is now two years and two generations old. That said, the Ryzen has 12 full cores and 24 threads so if we go higher than 8 images, I might catch up to you.  Mike |
