Timeout on 3D preview generator

Hello Shanin,
in the build #2229 3D preview generator takes too much time and usually timeout.I just did a slicing test with same model,same profile and same mask file between build #2229  and #1936 (latest version of without 3D preview feature i think).
There is a huge time difference between them.In the build #229 i sliced model in almost 3 minutes but in the build #1936 i just sliced in 38 second.

My questions is can you add options to disable 3D preview feature on Windows.Please i beg you .Here is the some picture of console.

#Build 2229

Slice Start

Slice End

Resource Usage During Slice

Build #1936

Slice Start

Slice End

Resource Usage During Slice

here is results Shanin.

By the way Shanin after slice end nanodlp.exe still consuming memory.i think releasing memory after slice operation completed may be a good idea or am i wrong ?

here is picture :

Thank You.

Re: Timeout on 3D preview generator

Very strange as it should terminate after 20s not 120s after failing to generate 3d preview.
I have added option to disable 3d preview.

I believe both slicing time should be very close without 3d preview. I guess your pc were busy during the second run.

About memory, golang compiler (language which nanodlp written) does not release memory to OS until it forced or think it is good time to release it.
