I am using Ubuntu 20.04 and I have a folder with many .png and .json files (+100k in total, no sub-folder within the folder).

When I tried to open one of its .png images with xdg-open abc.png or eog abc.png, it took 4-5 sec to open the view image window. My disk is SSD so it shouldn't have such a slow speed. Also, this problem only happen in such big folder. Both xdg-open and eog works pretty fast for images in other folders.

It's kind of annoying. Any one know the reason for such a slow speed?

  • Try using eog with --disable-gallery option, probably will not scan the folder for other images.
