   Hello,

   Version 1.3 generally didn't cause many problems over its seven months as the most recent version, but it did have one bug that may be the cause of the slow loading. Try upgrading to 1.4b and let me know if that helps.

   Based on your comments on another thread, I would strongly consider that reading images off of your new server is the cause of the slowness. This plugin reads the full size version of the images and lets the browser scale it down; using the browser to do this isn't as efficient as doing it server side, but I aimed for simple on that aspect. You could try scaling the images down manually and see if that speeds things up as well.

   What theme are you using? I'll spend some time trying to stress-test the new version over the next few days to see if I can replicate your problem and let you know what I find...

   Ok, the 1.5 code version inserts comments in the code that show how long it takes the plugin to read each directory. On my server, it takes 2-3 tenths of a second to read nearly 9000 images, and it is displaying the images in around .4 or .5 seconds the first time the page is loaded--it takes awhile, but nowhere near the amount of time you're talking about. The images I'm using aren't huge--somewhere in the 200KB-500KB range.

   I think you're problems are somehow server related, but take a look at the code and see what you find.

   Thanks-
