Hi Dmitry,

Thank you for the second patched version. It was not until 3 AM today was I
able to download the file from Yandex. I think it could be network slowdown in
Europe during busy hours with all those pandemic induced bandwidth usage.

I use Linux, but I maintain a second drive just for test purpose and flashing
firmwares. Maybe you can give me appimage links from now on to save me a reboot
and the eyesores looking at Windows Cleartype. :D

Now the patched version (DK2). It both worked and did not work for me:

For small pictures, it was definitely working. It selects an area in a blink.
Fastest speed I ever saw.

For large pictures it was a very different story. 
Use the the 4.3 splash for example, and select a small color patch:

It was really, really slow. Much slower than the DK1 build. It doesn't matter
where I clicked or how large a color patch is, it'd just slowdown to the same
amount. Krita felt like it was taking the whole image into consideration when
calculating the effective area. Meanwhile the Fill tool can still fill an area
in an instant. This picture has no gradient color, all hard-edged, there is no
way it needed to look at the whole picture for a small patch of waterlily.

But if I crop the large splash under 1000x1000, then when I select the same
area as above, it'd be selected in an instant.

Enabling Antialiasing in DK1 build was able to speed up 100 to 200 ms. But in
DK2 when the image was large, enable or disable it does make much difference,
because it was just to slow to begin with.
