Hi Guys,
Hoping someone has some insight for me on this. I noticed that my ingesting seemed slow so I purchased a new wiz-bang Thunderbolt3 reader. Image my surprise when it was barely a minute faster than my USB reader. So today I tested a CF Express card with the new reader under more controlled settings and this is what I found. Hardware is a Dell XPS 13 9320 with the most current update of Windows 11, PM6 most resent build, Prograde Gold 1700Mb/s card with 5000 jpgs from a D6 and a Atlas FXR reader using a Thunderbolt 4 cable as supplied.
Windows drag and drop from the card to an empty folder 1:15
PM6 Ingest with no rename or IPTC being written 8:42
PM6 with metadata and renaming 12:05
For chuckles and grins I had PM6 rename the 5000 files and that took 6.8 seconds... updating the IPTC took 2:36 so even if I did those two steps AFTER doing a simple drag and drop I am still orders of magnitude faster than a PM6 ingest. So thoughts on what may be taking all that time? 11 minutes is a LONG time when you are watching everyone else file images and you're stuck ingesting.
