CS5.5 Live View is very slow compare to CS5?

I have just installed a trial version of Dreamweaver CS5.5.
I tried on the Live View. However, to my surprise, everything render in CS5.5 is extremely slow?
It works great for me in CS5 but not CS5.5
Any idea why?
Cheers,
Venn.

Hi,
I tried what you sayed, but without luck.
I mostly experience trouble with jQuery effects.
And yes i tried it with disabling my testing server(but normal i realy need this, because i build php based websites).
Also i have the same problem with the inbuild templates.
When i use jquery i experience this trouble the most.
One of the websites where i experience the trouble: http://www.boevewebdesign.com
Details of my testing server http://www.zend.com/en/products/server-ce/index
My computer:
windows 7 ulimate 32 bit
core i7

Firefox 13 very slow compared to IE or Chrome despite Fastestfox

Firefox is very slow compared to IE 8 or Google Chrome despite Fastestfox plugin and the server connection is interrupted all the time when I try to load sites, and I have to re-load again and again (this also happens wehn I clicked on HELP)... I also could not restart in safemode as I didn't find it... Please help, as I would like to use Firefox...

I noticed firefox 13.0.1 is very slow after gradual use. Even my computer is slowing down when using it.. All this nonsense about the addon or extension seems like Bull...
Im thinking of using version 3.6.28 which was wayyyy faster. Mozilla need to make more quality products.
I recommend either going back to Internet Explorer or using Firefox 3.6.28, i really hope mozilla's next browser ver 14 is way faster...

Live View Updates Extremely Slow in DW 5.5

I'm having a problem with the Live view update. I'm using the localhost as my testing server. So, network speed shouldn't be an issue. I'm on a Windows 64 bit, 2.2 gHz, Quad Core, 8 GB ram..so it should run relatively well. But, I sometimes have to wait 2 minutes for the screen to update when I change something, turn off LiveView, then turn it back on. You can imagine how this slows down development. Every change takes 2 minutes to see? Yikes! It makes the product almost unusable.
Is there any fix for this?

Last night, I got the solution to this from Adobe tech support -- at least for me. The technician suggested that I update my video card driver.
And also make sure that I had the latest version of Flash player. Apparently, CS5.5 has adopted a new way of previewing files that relys heavily on the video cache and the player, and old drivers are usually the problem.
I did this, and things work much better. Still a bit doggy at times, but I can work with it.
He also suggested that I upgrade to Windows 7. (I'm still using Vista) ANd that I would see a "100% improvement". I like the sound of that. Haven't tried it yet....If anybody does, let me know how it goes.

Live View and Inspect BROKEN in DW CS5 & Drupal

I successfully navigated through the confusing instructions for setting up a local Drupal website in Dreamweaver's site manager and was very excited the first time I did a "discover" and DW found all the Drupal files on my local testing server. Yay!
I was even more excited when I tried live view and was able to click on elements in my Drupal page and see the CSS properties displayed. (similar to how Firebug in Firefox works)
Unfortunately, my excitement didn't last. The property inspector in DW CS5 is BROKEN. When you click on a specific element on the page, the "live code" displayed for that selection is wrong. DW tends to select far more code than the actual element chosen. As a result, the CSS properties displayed in the CSS panels are wrong for that particular element. Most of the time, they are the properties for the element (<div>) that WRAPS the selected element.
This makes the wonderful, Live View Inspect TOTALLY USELESS, for Drupal development. Didn't Adobe actually TEST this app with Drupal before distributing it? I just spent $600 on an upgrade to CS5 for NOTHING!

Not sure how I could translate the problem into a plain html file, since all the elements of Drupal are served up from a database and php server. Even if I could, I suspect it wouldn't reproduce the problem, since I have no issue with the Inspect button on static html files. One thing to note is that the box model on the selected element seems to accurately reflect the proper CSS settings, even though live code and CSS panels do not. So the out-of-sync issue seems to be between the box model and the live code and CSS panels.
It would be worth your while to set up a live Drupal site. Admittedly, there are a ton of different things going on within a Drupal page, including javascript, which I suppose could throw things out of sync. (although turning off javascript didn't fix the problem) Since Drupal is all open source, it would be easy for me to send a zipped codefile and mysql dump to your developers. Or you could recreate a site from Drupal.org. I have tested this against several iterations of Drupal with several different themes, some simple and some complex, and the problem is pretty consistent, although it behaves slightly differently depending on the Drupal theme being used.
On some themes, Inspect picks LESS than the proper amount of code. On some themes, it picks MORE. My theory is that it's some kind of mathematical or array issue with DW, because Firebug can reliably render all my Drupal sites with no issues at all.
Using the Tag Selector is difficult in most cases, because the Inspect selector tends to select an "outer" div instead of the one that is correct, so the correct selection is not shown on the tag selector list. (since the tag selector only shows outer divs to the currently selected one.) The convoluted workaround is to select an element INSIDE of the targeted element, and then backtrack up the Tag Selector tree. Selecting the proper code with the Tag Selector DOES appear to render the proper CSS and Live Code, but you obviously lose one of the biggest advantages of live view, which is to quickly find the proper element and see the visual box model rendered live.
This one issue will severely limit the attractiveness of DW to Drupal developers. But if you can get it working, I will be singing Dreamweaver's praises all over Drupal.org!
UPDATE: One other clue I just discovered while using several other Drupal themes: When selecting an element, live code appears to miss the first div and instead pick the following div. Example: (note, I'm using parentheses instead of brackets since this forum strips brackets)
(div id=first_div)some kind of text
(/div)
(div class=second_div)more text(/div)
The live code selection is in bold italic. Live code starts selecting AFTER the first div marker and grabs the start of the next div.
Sure seems like a mis-applied array element to me.

Live Text Template - Very slow to update

Started using Live Text Templates which in theory seem really great but they are SOOOOO slow to update.
So I create a simple 5 sec title with two text elements which simply fade in at the start and fade out at the end. The back ground is plain colored shape.
I put this in to premiere, open it in the source panel and update my two text elements
I put this title into an empty timeline - if I move the play head over the clips in the timeline it can take up to 60 seconds before the clip shows the correct text
I then change the text in the master clip (title).
Going back to the time line it takes about 1-2 minutes before I can view the changes in the timeline - either by just putting the playhead over the clip or actually playing the timeline. It will either show a black frame or the previous text.
If the sequence contains other content then after changing text in the master clip the whole timeline will just show a black frame in the program panel for about 30-60 seconds then I can view this other content but have to wait a further 30-60 seconds before I see the updated title text.
Its very slow and far from live. Anyone know if there is something I can change somewhere to speed this up? What is happening behind the scenes to allow Premiere to effectively render out this titles? If I actually render the title in the timeline it only take a few seconds so no reason it should take so long for Premiere to do it in the background.

Good question that I ask myself also, but not just updating Titles. Same time lag for updating a Photoshop image that sits inside Premiere, or updating an After Effects composition inside Premiere.
Sometimes I think I can 'trick it' into speeding up by 'saving' the Premiere project, but then most times I think I am tricking myself.

Report Viewer is very slow at first time

Hi,
We are facing very slow when loading the reports.For any search it is taking more time to load the reports.We are thinking issue is due to report viewer control and we are using report viewer control version 10.0.0.0.Could you please let us know how to resolve
this issue.

View is very slow.

Hi All,
I have a view which has 15 select statement using union. It's a complex view.
create or replace view v1 (c1,c2,c3)
as
select c1,c2,c3 from t1,t20,t30,t40 where ...............
union
select c1,c2,c3 from t2,t3,t4,t5 where ...............
union
select c1,c2,c3 from t15,t16,t,17 where ...............
If I run the select statement on its own its very quick, records are retrieved in milli seconds.
select c1,c2,c3 from t1,t20,t30,t40 where c1 = xyz
union
select c1,c2,c3 from t2,t3,t4,t5 where c1 = xyz
union
select c1,c2,c3 from t15,t16,t,17 where c1 = xyz
but If I run the same selects through a view then it takes 10 min.
select * from v1 where c1 = xyz
Can someone tell me whats the difference,why the view is so slow as its the same sql in a view and if there is a work around.I have to make this view run faster as its used in Oracle forms.
Thanks.
V.

I tried doing UNION ALL and ran the same query it made no difference. It took still 10 min, which means whether its union or union all oracle is not able to push the predicate inside the various sub queries . Thanks Rob.
Any other solutions ?
I think I may have to take the select statments from the view and create the form based on the proecudure using the select statements.

Oracle query / view performing very slow.

Hello,
I had created a view in my application for example
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW EmpTransfer
( EMPID,EMPNAME,EMPMANAGER,EMPDOB,EMPTRANSFER)
AS
SELECT EMPID,EMPNAME,EMPMANAGER,EMPDOB,EMPTRANSFER
FROM EMP ;
After couple of months if we changed a columnname in the table EMP and added a new column.
We changed column name EMPTRANSFER to OldEMPTRANSFER and added a new column as NEWEMPTRANSFER.
The indexes were recreated on OldEMPTRANSFER and new index is creatd on NEWEMPTRANSFER column.
the view is again recreated.
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW EmpTransfer
( EMPID,EMPNAME,EMPMANAGER,EMPDOB,OldEMPTRANSFER,NEWEMPTRANSFER )
AS
SELECT EMPID,EMPNAME,EMPMANAGER,EMPDOB,OldEMPTRANSFER ,NEWEMPTRANSFER
FROM EMP ;
This view is working as expected but some times this view is working very slow.
The performance of this view is randomly slow.
Is it possible that column name change will cause slowness...?

What's the explain plans for both before and after the column change? It could possibly be running slow the first time because of a hard parse due to the query change, which will remain until it's in the shared_pool.

Menu bar not showing in IE, but in DW CS5 'live view' it's there.

I am having problems with my webpage, for some reason when I am in DW live view everything works,but when I go to preview in browser the menu bar doesn't show up. I have made sure that my local and testing server files are all synced. Here is a link to my html page.
https://acrobat.com/#d=L2NJRmXay62Osbh8HtrMtQ
my menu bar is an 'includes' file so that I only have to update the css one time and it will update every page on my website.
ANY help is appriciated!!

You would need to post your code into a reply using the web forum's double arrows > syntax highlighting > plain.
1) Did you name your parent pages with a supported extension to tell the server to parse server-side includes? Some common ones are .shtm, .shtml, php, or asp.
2) Does your web server support the use of server-side includes?
3) To preview includes locally, you need a local testing server installed on your computer. Do you have one?
4) Does your include file contain ONLY the menu HTML code and nothing else?

How soon will DW CS5 Live View Webkit support CSS3?

See above. I just tried CSS3's text-shadow (although I don't believe it's totally CSS3) and while the shadow works well in Chrome, in Opera and in Safari, DW's Live View does not render the shadow, but rather an offset black copy of the text. Webkit supports this but apparently not the webkit in DW. Will this be updated by extension or update and if so, when?
Thanks,
Nancy

Safari is very slow compared to other ipod

When using safari it is very slow tobrowse web pages. My wife also has an ipod touch and she can browse the internet no problem. it makes no difference if only my ipod is connected ti the net or both of them, my wifes is always a lot quicker. Sometimes it is taking 30-60 seconds to open a page.
any suggestions?

I realize that, but I also got the same speeds with my other wireless laptop (thinkpad t420s). The speed should be at around 50 Mbps regardless of whether it's wired or wireless according to my test.
So if it's an antenna issue, does it mean I need to have the macbook serviced at an apple store?
I'm not really interested in getting a range extender, it's not something I feel I should need, especially when I have another laptop getting 3x faster speeds without the need for one.

Mac 10.6.4 and CS5 - known problems? VERY slow, long freezes

I am on a brand new 12-core (dual 6-core 2.66GHz) Mac Pro with 16GB of RAM (and of course running 10.6.4). I have a new install of CS5 Master Suite (trial version, our box has not arrived yet), and primarily in my explorations with After Effects, it is running PAINFULLY slowly, mostly around simple interface stuff like scrubbing the timeline.
But this was also very apparent during rendering - a project that took about 20 minutes on my old 32-bit Core 2 Duo Dell with 4GB of RAM and CS4 took about 14 minutes on this new one under CS5 (running with 4 cores each using 2GB of RAM, and plenty of cores and RAM left over for other system stuff)... but I could see that a lot of that was due to HUGE delays in processing time as it rendered, long swaths of spinning beach-ball time. Had it not been for those, it likely would have rendered in about 2-3 minutes (as I would expect).
I have installed all available system and Adobe updates as of today (9/28/10), I am now running the updated AE 10.0.1... and I am having the same issues, with AE running very, very slowly. Scrubbing a project is nearly impossible - it regularly sends the system right to the beach-ball for many seconds; opening one project, which took 7-15 seconds on the Windows side (an old 32-bit Core 2 Duo Dell with 4GB Ram and CS4), takes up to 4:30 on the Mac under CS5! Same project, hierarchy, footage, etc.
I tried rendering it several ways: with 2 cores with 3GB each (leaving 6GB and 12 cores for other apps), with 3 multiprocessor cores each with 3GB of RAM (leaving 4GB of RAM and 10 cores for other apps), with 4 cores with 2GB each (6GB and 12 cores allowed for other stuff), with 7 cores each with 1.5 GB (leaving the minimum RAM and cores for other apps) and with NO multiprocessing on at all. Just for the baseline, the old Dell rendered this same file in 23:49, so all of these results are an improvement over that, but not nearly enough! Those long pauses still occurred - while watching the render, I could see it fly through parts, and then choke for many seconds at a time. Here are the timing results:
Multiprocessing Off: 9:57
2 Cores with 3GB each: 14:01
3 Cores with 3GB each: 9:36
4 Cores with 2GB each: 9:12
7 Cores with 1.5GB each: 15:12
This all seems pretty *******' random, though my testing methodology was far from iron-clad, as you can see. But either way, you would think with my system specs more cores would produce better results, not worse. I would have expected the 2 or 3 core configs to produce the best results.
The horrible lags seemed most pronounced on frames that cross faded, even a very simple crossfade - there was only one of significance in my video, where two videos crossfade over the space of about a second; each FRAME of that crossfade appeared to take about 20-30 seconds to render... or more accurately, each frame would render, and then there would be one of the insane processor lags. No lags this bad or pronounced happened on the Dell side - it was slow all around, but consistent.
Now, I did some tests with Activity Monitor open, and discovered some interesting things. When rendering with multiprocessing, each core used for rendering shows up as a process called "aeselflink" (as I'm sure you know), and at least a few of them are always at the top of the list, if you view activity by % CPU.
What was interesting is that while the render was actually processing (I could see motion in the render preview, as opposed to when it was choked), the CPU usage graph looked as you'd expect, going up and down between 5-50% of the CPU use. But when it stalled out and choked on a frame - or whatever it was doing - the CPU usage in the graph would PIN to the top as completely maxed out, with between 98 and 99% of the usage going to % User.
When those lags happened, the aeselflink processes often showed up as EACH using anywhere from 200% to 900% of the % CPU. Sometimes they were all pinned up there; other times only one or two seemed to demand that much time. Sometimes, however, things choked and the CPU usage graph showed NO activity, plain black idle for many seconds at a time. This doesn't seem to reveal much to me, but maybe smarter people can get some info from it.
Also, sometimes when starting a render, the aeselflink processes would show up in the Activity monitor normally, not demanding much time, but for a good long time (1-2 minutes) the main AE application process would show up red, saying it was not responding; during this time, the CPU usage graph showed almost no activity at all, just 0-10% User activity.
Whew. Ok, there's my random smattering of data. I hope this helps give someone in the know a better picture of what's going on here... this is a huge problem if it can't be addressed.
Matt

From the initial description this sounds a lot like the problems I've been having with rendering in After Effects CS5.
I have read a lot online about hyper-threading being the cause and have been adjusting various settings with multiprocessing and turning hyper-threading on and off. So far nothing has been able to give me consistent processor use during renders or reliable render times.
Here are the details of my set up:
Big Bad MF Mac
12 core Mac Pro, 2 x 2.93 GHz 6 core Intel Xeon, 32GB of RAM.
Boot Drive is 1TB
3 additional 2TB Hard drives RAID 0 for a 6TB Media Drive
Mac OS 10.6.4
After Effects 10.0.1
Project details are:
1920x1080, 23.976 FPS
Footage is all uncompressed 4:4:4 AJA Kona 10 bit RGB captured using Final Cut Pro from a Sony F950.
Project Color space is Apple RGB.
Using Keylight 1.2 to Key video and then placing the footage as a 3D layer, with several other 3D layers with 2 spot lights on the footage to generate shadows on the background layer.
Only effects used are Key Light 1.2, Levels, Hue and Saturation.
Output is 1920x1080 Animation codec quicktime at 100%, 48Khz Audio.
Multi processing is enabled. I have experienced the problem with many different settings.
Current settings are:
5GB for other applications
12 CPUs used for other applications
2GB per core.
All source footage is on the RAID. All output files are being written to the RAID.
Renders are amazingly inconsistent. Processor activity and render times are dramatically different when performing render tests with the same composition and identical settings. I regularly get the spinning beach ball and rendering pretty much stops for long periods of time. When watching the processors via activity monitor I have noticed many times that rendering starts out strong, peaking all processors being used regardless of multiprocessing settings. When this is happening the render looks like it is progressing as expected. Then after some period of time, sometimes 2 minutes, sometimes 10 minutes the processor use drops off and rendering slows to a crawl. When this happens the whole computer suffers. I can't even use a web browser.
After extensive testing I have noticed that I have my best luck setting up several items in the render que. Save. Quit. Restart. Turn off hyper-threading after restart via the processor pref pane from Apple. Open After effects and render. The problem will still occur, however if I'm lucky I can get good render performance for 10-20 minutes before the system starts to lag again. This is completely killing my work flow. I don't know what's going to happen from one render to the next.
I know this computer can scream under some situations, but something is terribly wrong here. This computer is not living up the hype on the Apple web site about Apple and Adobe After Effects.
Please help.
I'm going to add some more information just in case some engineer at Adobe gets his hands on this. HINT HINT
I set up a render before I left work last night. It was 7 clips as described above. I forgot to include the scrubbed audio to one of the comps so I went back and re-rendered the clip today. Last night the clip took 33 minutes to render. Today, after a restart and turning off hyper-threading. I opened After Effects, turned off multiprocessing and clicked ok. Then I went back and turned it on with these settings.
5GB for other Apps
12 installed cores (after disabling hyper-threading)
2 cores for other apps and 2GB per CPU.
So yeah, the exact same clip with audio rendered for me today in 5 minutes.
I should have some time today to run some experiments and do some testing. If anybody out there has any suggestions I'm game to try just about anything to help isolate the problem and get it fixed ASAP. I just hope this doesn't turn into one of those bugs where Adobe and Apple just keep kicking it back and forth and nothing ever gets resolved.

Files from IDML or CS5, 5.5 become very slow in InDesign CS6

Windows 7 64 bit, core 2 duo, 8 gb ram, plenty of open space on the hard drive.
Files work just fine in CS5 and CS5.5. Opening one of them in CS6 and working in them when just opened is also fine. After saving the file as a CS6 document, closing, and reopening in CS6, selecting text becomes extremely slow...merely putting the cursor in a text frame results in significant delay--the toolbar goes blank and takes several seconds before it redraws. Proceeding to select text and typing changes causes similar behavior.
Opening an IDML file causes similar behavior after the file is saved as CS6 and closed.
Files created in CS6 do not have this problem. It only seems to happen to files converted from previous versions or from IDML.
Does not happen consistently, so I suppose it could be a font issue, although the files in question were originally built on a Mac and are being opened on the PC.

OS is Win7 64 professional.
Turned off Live Preflight etc., tried the .idml export, same problem.
It's only on these specific files that have been opened from a .idml source which came from a Mac system. I had to replace fonts since we did not own the typefaces provided with the packaged files, so I am definitely suspecting a font issue. The original typefaces were OpenType and have been replaced with Adobe versions, although the problem does occur with the OpenType fonts in place.
For now I can work in them using CS 5.5 with no trouble. When time permits I may rebuild these from scratch in CS6, as they are simple layouts anyway, although I also want to figure out exactly what is the cause. Fonts are the chief suspect even though I have them installed locally. I am going to try replacing them with completely different typefaces from newer sources to see if that makes a difference.

CS5.5 Live View is very slow compare to CS5?
