        <pre>I'm not sure this is a bug, but it is certainly something that has really
compromised my work recently!

Having recently updated FIJI/ImageJ, I have noticed that the process of
importing image sequences has become really, really slow. Previously, it would
take around 15 seconds to import a 2GB image sequence of 1024 tiff files, but
now, it takes many minutes.

I notice that when ImageJ is importing the stack, there is an additional
reporting in the menu bar that the software is initializinfg the volume from
which the sequence is being imported for each tiff file, which was certainly
not evident in the previous versions of FIJI/ImageJ. I note that importing a
RAW version of the same volume is as quick as usual. I have uninstalled and
re-installed a fresh build of FIJI, but the problem is still there, and I have
experienced the same problem on two different iMacs.
