When I had my images local, it was nothing to apply the changes to the wallpaper settings. Now that I have moved my images to a NAS box, and mapped the drive (public folders on the NAS, so no login creds needed) it took over 15 minutes for it to finally apply the settings. I was wondering if there was any way of speeding that up?
Hi Owen, sorry I have not responded sooner, I was called away out of town on business. Attached is the log file export. Times to look at was 08:20 for the Apply click, and 08:25 for the Ok click. so it took about 5 minutes for each to complete. This has only happened since moving the images to a NAS box, and mapping the public folder to a drive letter.
I have found a slight workaround, by creating a local folder, and creating directory symlinks (symlinkd) to certain folders on the network share, it does speed up the time.

Hi James,
Are there a lot of sub-folders in the folder you've selected for the wallpaper? If so, I think that may be what's slowing it down. If the NAS drives are slower spinning disks that would contribute, and traversing folders over the network will be much slower than on a local drive as well.
Thanks!
