why is it that images take forever to cut?

[Beyond]

put an image in paint with a resolution of 2304x1728, ctrl+x, cpu goes up to 82% and paint doesn't respond. except about 5 seconds until the operation is complete.



i guess this is expected for an image of such size, but is there any system that would do it as quickly as say.. IE opening? is this more intel territory?

u should use something better than paint.

something seems wrong there, if it's the pc in your sig that you're using it should surely do it faster, i haven't got paint so just tried it with fireworks and everything i tried with an image of that resolution was instant, and i would expect fireworks to need more time and my pc is no where near as good as yours, have you got a lot of processes running? any spyware?

i don't have any spyware and my CPU is at 0% before i do it...

can someone else try this with paint and see if it does it for you as well?
