Users report significant performance issues in Kingspray after prolonged use of a single file, with problems resembling poor tracking likely linked to large data file sizes exceeding 100 MB. This has been noted as a frustrating drawback for an art program.
“After painting on the same file in Kingspray for some time, the program seems to run into performance issues that mimic poor tracking, possibly related to the dat file which I have seen exceed 100 MB for just one picture. This is a frustrating outcome for an art program.”
