Thanks for the report. Strange, I can't reproduce the problem here, browsing a directory with 100+ pictures, though my PC has only 512Mb of RAM and a 1.2 GHz CPU. Gwenview switches images quite snappily. Could you run 'top' from konsole, to verify that it is gwenview that is eating the CPU when it tries to view the next image, and not some other process? The fam daemon has caused problems with KDE apps in the past, for instance, though that's just a wild guess.
