hi all, i'm doing cell counting using itcn plugin in imageJ. this runs extremely slow and is seriously hampering my progress. the pictures to be analyzed are max 400M, however activity manager displays usage of all 32g ram. i have an imac 2013, quad core 32g ram i7 but the program only uses 1 core for over 100%, making it unpractically slow. i posted screen print of activity manager and imageJ window.

could anyone please advise me on how to make the program/plugin run faster??

thx!!
