A great new version indeed, the multicore support is wonderfull, the new list file for srcgrid is so much easier to use when dealing with large number of files.
And you also fixed two problems I had with the old version.
The previous version would not take more than a 1000 files or so , I fed this one with a list of 2025 images, and it took them without a hitch
In the previous version when using srcgrid, all images had to have the exact same resolution. Now if the last column has a different width or the last row a different height, it does not seem to bother hdmake which is great.
Performance wise, assembling a 40,000 x 40,000 pixel composition made of 9 images (3x3), took 70 sec to read and 370 sec to process (2 cores running), and about the same time to process the same 40kx40k composition, but made with 2025 images (45x45)
Congratulations and Thank you !
