[Bug 792896] Re: Fast Preview Hangs or Crashes since 2011.0

 

Any Mac OS X user also affected?  bug 814301 reports that Hugin 2010.2.0
works well at detecting CPs while 2011.0.1 does not.

History of CP detectors:

2010.2.0: technically speaking, Hugin did not detect CP. A third party
tool did. Most user used Autopano-SIFT-C. Some users used a lesser known
and faster tool, Panomatic. Both tools are encumbered by patents, it is
the user's responsibility to make sure that they are allowed to use them
in their jurisdiction.

2010.4.0: first release of Hugin's own CP detector, cpfind.

2011.0.0: cpfind improved and AFAIK it is superior to any tool
previously used with Hugin.

And looking at it from a threading perspective:
* Autopano-SIFT-C does not use multi-threading
* Panomatic uses zthreads for multi-threading
* cpfind uses zthreads for multi-threading

could this be another manifestation of this pesky bug?  could it be a
bug in zthreads?
