Many thanks for all the replies and good comments, I now got test licenses, a powerful computer and am happily testing. It turns out that professional software can be much faster (~20x) than Fiji for the same task, due to efficient multitasking? But actually measuring the speed is not so straightforward as small changes to the parameters can make a big difference in speed. Sometimes the whole analysis comes to a stop and one does not know where it is hanging... And pre-fabricated pipelines can be very inflexible.   best wishes  Andreas  -----Original Message-----

I don't have much to add to what has been said, except maybe this: Yes,
one instance of Imaris will open only one data set. But you can open
several instances of Imaris in parallel. Whether this is a fun thing to
do or not will depend on the power of the hardware.

Best
