It also fixes minor issues in the areas of book ordering, and iPod touch support.

Yeah but will it recognise my cat?
It recognizes my dog!
am i the only one that thinks the program lags a bunch? is it really dependent on the number of pics i have or is it the program itself? i have about 3 GB of pics in there. think i should just pare the library down?
I’ve been VERY unhappy with performances of the Faces feature. I can understand facial recognition missing every now and then, but it misses so many clear faces — often completely missing the presence of a large face in the center of the image. I’m so tired of clicking on “Add Missing Face” and having to drag and resize the empty box I’m almost ready to give up on the feature.
Yeah, my iPhoto lags like crazy. I do have over 11,000 photos, but man, it is starting to get near unusable.
iPhoto has constantly lagged and gone into beachball spin requiring complete force restart of computer since installing Snow Leopard in Edit mode, this needs to be fixed. My son and daughter’s Macs iPhoto doing same thing while enhancing, cropping etc in Edit mode since Snow Leopard installation.
I have had that with the new iPhoto (I moved from 08 to 09) on Leopard (PPC desktop) but, in contrast to your experience, NOT in SL on the Macbook (core duo Intel).
The update has made recognition much faster and more reliable..
Maybe you need to do a rebuild..
“Rebuilding the thumbnail cache gives iPhoto faster access to thumbnail images and the resulting display of the photos themselves. Over time, as photos are added and removed, this cache becomes less efficient.”
option-command Open iPhoto to rebuild.
But what about Aperture? The longer I wait for an Aperture upgrade, the more interesting Lightroom becomes.
MW: future, as in “When will Aperture be updated?”
Don’t lag for me… well… on my 5 year old macbook. yes but the 1 year old macbook pro and imac (late 2009) don’t!!!
Ok… someone else verify this for me. Now, when I go to edit a picture (a quick crop or straighten… I do more advanced editing in photoshop), my picture gets a bit blurry. To get back to the original sharp image, I have to click Done, then minimize the pic and re-enlarge it. I’m hoping for another update soon to fix this apparent new bug!!
I have 7 photos in my iPhoto app. No problems when you keep it simple.
