Creating orthomosaic seems to take way longer with metashape

[jmaeding]

I just installed metashape which replaces photoscan, of course, and the ortho creation step is way slower now.
It used to take an hour for about 400 photos, now its taking 2 hours.
This is a critical issue I cannot just ignore.
I need some feedback on this or have to go back to photoscan.
thanks

Hello jmaeding,

Can you please send the processing logs related to the orthomosaic generation operation in versions 1.4 and 1.5 and the corresponding report files exported from the very same versions?

Hmm, I did not have the log file set.
Funny thing though, I originally cancelled the ortho creation after seeing it would take 2 hours.
Then I realized trying to use PS might not work on a project opened and saved with metashape, so I reran the ortho creation in MS.
The second time, it ran in normal 20 minute time frame.
I'm going to test more to look for this pattern, and also have turned on the logging.
thx

Hello jmaeding,

If you happen to observe the orthomosaic generation stage to be slower, please save the processing log from the Console and send it to us. Probably, there was something with the settings.
