Oil Paint Filter Size

[nwscomps]

Does Oil Paint filter work correctly with a filter size greater than 10? It seems that any value greater than this does not produce any increase in the oil paint width effect. Since I need to use this filter with high-res images for me it is fundamentally important I can achieve big brush sizes.
Thanks for any answer

The brush size is limited to 10, internally. But, removing that limitation doesn't seem to have any adverse effects. I tested it up to 100, and the results seem reasonable.

The reason for the limitation seem to be that the function, as written, runs in O(brush_size^2) time. So a brush size of 100 takes a LONG time to finish, even on a small image. A large brush size on a large image would be prohibitively slow.

I can look into finding a better algorithm for it. If I find one, I'll remove that limit.

But... I can't promise anything.

Hi, well can you just bring the limitation to a size of 20 for now? That could be enough for my need and not take so long.
