Public bug reported: Use case: Scan enough pages for your XUbuntu to start dumping memory into swap Save as image files
What happens: You first wait for the last pages to be swapped out and first pages converted You then wait for the opposite thing What would be significantly better: You can write later pages first, using the fact that it is already in the memory at the end I believe that it can be done as easily as changing the line 224 in book.vala from: for (var i = 0; i < n_pages; i++) to: for (var i = n_pages; i >= ; --i) But i cannot test it, being unable to compile ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.04 Package: simple-scan 3.28.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-46.49-generic 4.15.18 Uname: Linux 4.15.0-46-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Tue Mar 12 17:51:03 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2018-11-24 (107 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 18.04.1 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Release amd64 (20180725) MachineType: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
