I think that's because XBMC loads multiple images at once (even when they aren't yet cached) while the script is loading them one by one.(2013-03-26, 13:09)charrua Wrote: One more suggestion for the future:Run multiple separate processes? At the end of the day, the speed is determined by the server... some systems (eg. Pi) are pretty much maxed out by a single task.
multiple threads for speeding up long tasks
The process is not CPU intensive, probably the speed is determined by the http requests to get the images, which I think could be greatly improved by implementing multiple threads.
