Thanks Matt, When I switch between two images I always get a flash going backwards. If the last image I was on was the image ahead then when I tap forward there is no flash and the transition is smooth.
In the lighttable the thumbnails seem to load immediately at the correct size, they are just not positioned properly for a few frames, in the case of the Culling mode they are also cropped into little 10px (approx) squares at first. When I run the darktable-generate-cache command: [init] the database lock file contains a pid that seems to be alive in your system: 24890 [init] database is locked, probably another process is already using it ERROR: can't acquire database lock, aborting.
