Tried it on a Windows box, it was amazing. But has a lot of scope for improvement - the pictures often look blurred

You should allow the photo to load and once it loads completely, it becomes very clear

I am not sure what you mean by waiting.
It takes only time for the first load, after that there is no delay involved

It can render approx 50% of the pictures clearly (may be even less)
And I tried it on a number of albums

From what I have noticed, when piclens starts, it loads the images partially and everything is blur. But when you click on every photo, you need to give it time to load the image. When you move on to other photos and then come back to the previous ones (which was already loaded), the images are very clear.

I figured out the problem. I have large image size and a large number of images. Pic lens loads each image when you select it. This was taking considerable amount of time and I was browsing very fast.
