Hi, I want to use the random photo screensaver to show random photos of my entire iPhoto library. I have a fairly large photo library (10k), and whenever I set the option to use a random mode (as opposed to sequencial) the harddrive thrashes a lot without doing anything when testing the screensaver.
Note: It works instantly in sequencial mode.
It seems to me its trying to search through all the photos or something? But it should be really efficient. Pick a random photo (random(10000)), display it, pick another random photo, etc.
Edit: This is using a dual G5 2Ghz with 1GB of RAM.
