True, but if you want to view lots of images with a responsive user- interface, feh is more than 10 times faster than shotwell. If you start shotwell from the command-line with a large number of images as arguments, then type <Space> as fast as you can (or increase your keyboard's default autorepeat rate) to load the next image, shotwell takes about 1/3 second to move to the next image. With feh, it takes about 30 milliseconds.
