Not sure if this is a bug or intended but this seems to be a hog on graphics. I've noticed after a while my Laptop heating up for no reason at all and it seems to be because it is requiring the graphics card on OSX and will not use the integrated card. In the Mac Activity Monitor it states it requires high perf gpu. I've tried with and with out the hardware acceleration it doesn't really seem to change anything. My libraries are all local.

System info
Macbook Pro Retina
OS X 10.9.5
Intel Core i7 2.3GHz
Nvidia GeForce GT 650M 1024MB
Mid 2012 Macbook 15"

The beta 2 desktop library app crashes while importing comics. I'm using a 2015 13" MBP with 16GB of RAM. The comics are on a reasonably fast USB3.0 external drive formatted HFS.

The MBP is plugged into an ancient Dell monitor, so retina display is not used.

I'd be happy to run a debug version of the library if it helps.

The first beta was able to import all the comics, but it didn't show screenshots of the comics while importing, the second beta did show those screenshots.

@Xukkorz is your main graphic card a nVidia card? Changing between hardware and software acceleration needs a restart of the app, and it definitely helps, the software version will only use your CPU.

@donncha thank you for the offering, if I need some debugging in your machine I will tell you.

@Robson this is related to the bug that was suffering Qulox.

@Qulox, is the .exe that I sent you having issues with the table view??

Every time I select more than 1 comic and try and fetch Comic Vine data, it gives me timeout error.. In version 7 I could select 45 comics at once with no problem. more info: Mac OSX 10.10.3 16 GB RAM SSD drive 240GB. MacBook Pro 13 early 2011

It is a nVidia card, but I've tried both with hardware acceleration on and off and it doesn't seem to change it. My assumption is with hardware accel off it should not use the graphics card is that correct? And I have restarted the app. I wouldn't care about the card usage but these mac laptops run super hot.

Turning off hardware acceleration only affects the cover flow. The grid view and also other parts are hardware accelerated, but use a different version of the OpenGL api. I can't say what's causing it to be a graphics hog, internal graphic cards should be enough to run it. Everything from an apple driver bug to a Qt bug (that's the graphics toolkit we're using) is possible. Just to be sure, could you check the cpu usage on your machine while running YACReader?

My answers are not necessarily official YACReader statements but mostly represent my own opinion in technical matters.
