[Qt-interest] How can I read a large image fastly?

[Jason H]

Also, you never said how many cores you have. I am assuming 1.
But if not, you could divide the image into N (where N=number of cores) regions and scale those, then composite them back together.

Dear Jason,
     Would you like to give me more details about it? I don't know how to deal with it as what you told me to.
For example:
1.How to load it in memory first? QPixmap::load() ? This is more slower then QImage::load().

2.What "scaling algorithms"  should I use?

Thanks.
