Taking a snapshot is slow

[Gamosphere]

This is something that has been bothering me. It takes a 'time' to take a snapshot. To check I opened a new image, with a fresh history, the orientation module being the top one in the history. Taking a first snap a that point is "instantaneous". Delete the history to get another fresh one but this time turn on local contrast and take a first snapshot at this point.....it takes 5-6 more times to complete . As soon as you start adding modules it is slow to take a snapshot.

I was curious and I went to DT and did the same thing with the result that I don't see noticeable delays. I don't imply it is better. I just wanted to rule out the impact of a slower laptop. Considering the amount of time spent on code optimization (and this cache thing I read but don't really get all the technical aspect) I am surprise of this 'performance' behaviour.

So, is it meant to be this way or something isn't correct?

It is still work in progress.
Currently the snapshot computes a full size image so you can zoom and pan. It takes as long time as exporting.
