Hi all,

I'm running a fairly straight forward image correlation program, which should run fairly quickly (~O(n^4), I believe). However, the complexity seems to be rising much quicker than that, an 962x722 image with a 30x29 kernel takes ~16 hours (with profiler on), whereas a 640x480 image with the same kernel takes ~1.5 hours.

Using profiler to determine the source for the complexity, I found that the Time self(ms) for read_png() was ~60,000,000ms, i.e., 99% of the runtime was loading in the image. However, time+sub(ms) reports taking only ~100ms. I was under the impression that Time+sub should always include time self, no? In any case, I don't think read_png should be taking nearly 16 hours to read a 700,000 pixel image.

I was able to recreate the problem on a separate computer using the same code.

Cheers and thanks,
