Depending on the Hardware that py-image-dedup is run on it might not be feasible to analyze images of any size, since they have to be processed in memory.
Describe the solution you'd like
Adding a filter function to include only specific files (f.ex. files with a given size limit) could be used to help with resource limitations. It could also be used for other purposes, like f.ex. only analyzing specific image types.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Reducing the Thread Count can also be used to limit the amount of resources that are used at the same time, but this comes with a severe performance penalty regarding the usage of the available CPU power.
