Processor

64-bit, 4 cores or more
Recommended: Intel Core i5 10th generation, AMD Ryzen 5 or newer

Memory

8 GB
Recommended: 16 GB

Recommended: a separate graphics card with 4 GB of its own memory and DirectX 12

Disk: the program

1 GB on the pc, in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Fotusa

Disk: search model and maps

5 GB in the top folder of your photo folder, once

Disk: per 1,000 photos

about 50 MB beside the photos, for the index, the thumbnails and the search vectors

Display

Internet

for activation, the licence check and the one-time download of the search model; the work itself needs none

Fotusa works through face recognition and search by image once for your whole collection. With a separate graphics card that goes much faster; on the processor alone it takes a day or more for 75,000 photos. You can keep working in the meantime, and after that only new photos are processed. On a lighter PC Fotusa suggests light mode: viewing, organising and editing without the heavy background work.

Well above what Fotusa used on a test computer with 74,000 photos.
