I am not sure where my bottlenecks are but I do not have a ton of photos but specific operations are incredibly slow in EVERY photo tool like scrolling through dates and loading thumbnails.

Are these use cases you optimize for?

I'd love to see what you're working on =P

exactly!!! yes they are. for thumbnails im using webP which achieves much better compression than the more standard png (like 10:1) which enables us to do a lot more with them. and when navigating fullsize photos, using some intelligent preloading so we never bog out :D

i'll try to get some initial commits pushed up soon. u can follow me here, the project is called montage (open to suggestions on name too lol):
