Lightroom CC brush hyper slow

Just installed the new Lightroom CC and OMG the brush is HYPER slow...  like almost unusable with the GPU enabled. Like 20 times slower, no kidding. And my machine is pretty fast and the GPU pass and is compatible and pretty fast with anything else..  Slow like I do not see the results until I release the pen....  Same Machine, same photo LR 5.7 works perfectly fine.

I just upgraded to LR 6 and have the same issue.  I haven't explored all of the tools but the adjustment brush is glacially slow compared to LR 5.7.  I am running the following hardware.
Win7 PRO 64
Intel Core i7 5820K 3.3GH (6 core)
32 G DDR4 2133 MHz
GTX 970 Video (4G)
Crucial M550 SSD (512)
Western Digital Black HD (4T)
Dell U2412M Ultrasharp Monitor
This should be plenty of horsepower to run LR easily.  How could Adobe release this pig without adequate testing?
Please advise if there are any solutions short of reverting to LR 5

  • Lightroom 5 is quite slow in importing photos

    Lightroom 5 is quite slow in importing photos from a memory card connected to a reader using USB 3.0! After installing LR5, I didn't change any default settings. Interestingly, this wasn't found in beta testing. LR4 was what I call quick or snappy. Because of LR5's slow performance, I went back to LR4 after paying for the Cloud subscription.
    With substantial difficulty and after some time passed, I eventually was able to speak to Support which offered no fix for this issue. I hope that it can be resolved soon.

    Selecting the Import from below in Files does help speed up the start of the Import as mentioned in the thread you referred to but is still maybe three or so times slower than in LR4. At least it makes using LR5 more bearable.
    Thanks.

  • Does Lightroom's brush tool support Wacom Pen Pressure?

    Does Lightroom brush tool support true "pen pressure" from the Wacom Intuos tablets?  According to Weston Maggio and Joe Sliger of Wacom (in numerous Webinars), "Pen pressure has been supported since Lightroom version 2."  I have used Lightroom's brush tool extensively and find no difference between the Pen and the Mouse.  The FLOW slider seems to be the only thing that adjusts how much effect applied.  If you continue to 'paint' your brush adjustments over an area with a flow of 20% it will gradually build up with either pen or mouse but the amount of pressure on the pen appears to make no difference.  If there is "Pen Pressure" available how do I enable it?  Thanks

    No, it is not. Wish it was for adjusting the "flow" in the adjustment brush, but that's really what Photoshop is for (meaning local adjustments). I perform all global adjustments in Lightroom and open the image as a smart object in Photoshop. Much better control, Lightroom is too limited as to local adjustments to be truly useful. Other than "flow," I see no reason for pen pressure so it's ok.

  • Importing in Lightroom 3 is painstakingly slow

    I am using iMac 3.06 Ghz Inel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB Ram. Suddenly importing Raw files in Lightroom 3 seems incredibly slow. Have preset import to embedded and sidecar. I did not seem to have this issue previously but for some reason now I do. I have my photos stored on NAS Thecus N5500.
    Any advise would be much appreciated.
    regards,
    LS

    Quote "Have preset import to embedded and sidecar".
    What exactly do you mean by this. Are you converting to dng and embedding the raw file? Are you creating high resolution sidecars? All this to the network drive? What is the connection wireless? USB 2.0 or other?
    What were you doing previously that it was so much faster?

    That sounds like it is working, Tony - remember that once you've painted where you want the effect of the brush to apply, you need to adjust the brush parameters, which all start off zeroed.
    If you want to see where you've applied the brush, press the (letter) "O".

  • Aperture Brushes still slow on maxed out imac i7  will it ever change

    Why are brushes still slow  to No Go.   I have an imac 3.4 i7 with 32G ram and 2g video card but still brushes are a major issue and can't be used in any professional manner because of the time involved in waiting and waiting. 
    Does anyone know what's going on and if it will ever be addressed by apple?
    thanks

    skye27,
    there must be a reason for the slowness in your setup.
    As long as we do not know more about your versions, the location of the Aperture library, the location of any referenced files, the image file format of your original master images, it is hard to suggest anything.
    Slowness can be caused ack of space on your drive, a corruption of your Aperture library, by network access, etc.
    Check, if you are having the same problem when using a new Aperture library or working from a different user account.
    This will narrow down the problem a bit for easier trouble shooting.
    Regards
    Léonie

  • Can a Lightroom adjustment brush draw a straight line by clicking the start and stop points?

    Can a Lightroom adjustment brush draw a straight line by clicking the start and stop points?

    studioMac wrote:
    I'm trying to selectively adust areas of an image in Lighroom. eg: a window frame in an architectural photo, and so being able to make straight lines with the adjustment brush would be very useful.
    I agree it would be useful. It's something that's been asked for. The best thing is to keep requesting at the Lightroom feature request forum

  • Aperture dodge /burn brush very slow

    I have a 15" late 2011 MBP with 16GB Ram, SSD, high res screen and when I try to use dodge / burn on photos from either my Canon 7D or 5D MKII sometimes the adjustment brush takes 5 seconds to process the brush marks. I am using aperture 3.2.2 raw 3.9 , lion 10.7.2 with all the updates.
    I can process the exact same files from Lightroom or photoshop without any slowness whatsoever. I have tried everything under the sun that i can think of, repair permissions, trying files from different drives etc and I get the same result every time its crazy slow. Some of the brushes work faster than others but every one of them have delays. I have tried it on different photos from different cameras but all with the same result.
    any ideas? I have run out

    I just tried all of those things, even ran all 3 of the repairs and no difference
    I even created a new libary and tried totally different pictures and had the same results
    if anyone has any other suggestions I am open to hearing them

  • Adjustment brush (retouch) slow to the point of being unsusable

    First, system and config info:
    Mac Pro (2 x 2.66Ghz)
    6 GB RAM
    ATI Radeon 4870 w/512MB VRAM
    OS X 10.6.2
    Aperture 3.0.1
    Aperture library is on a separate disk from the referenced images. Neither the library nor the images are on the boot drive.
    My test image is a raw NEF file of a waterfall with some graffiti on nearby rocks. If I send the image to Photoshop CS3 as an external editor I can stamp/clone a layer to brush out the graffiti and the response is, for all practical purposes, instantaneous. If I use the "retouch" adjustment within Aperture 3 in "clone" mode, I get a the dreaded spinning beachball and a "loading" pop-up. The response is so slow that it is very difficult to make any sort of fine adjustment.
    FWIW, I have been using Adobe Lightroom for the past couple of years but decided to take another shot at Aperture (I had tried v 1.1 but did not like it) because of the new features, especially Places and the new targeted adjustment tools. However, the adjustment tools are just dog slow even on a pretty well configured system. If I have to continue to do a round trip to PS CS3 for adjustments because of the dreadful performance in Aperture, then I may as well stick with Lightroom. (I can't imagine what Aperture would be like on my MacBook Pro....).
    Anyone else having performance issues with the adjustments tools? Any ideas to improve matters?
    Thanks

    I have tried a number of the suggestions in other threads.
    The Aperture libraries are on their own separate disk. They were created from scratch, no import of older libraries. The images were imported and left in place (referenced). After a couple of weeks of use, iDefrag shows almost no fragmentation in the libraries (0.02%).
    I have done nothing to specifically start OS/X in 64bit mode. I don't see the point. The only thing that is likely to happen by forcing this is to break things. The OS is "as installed", as is Aperture 3.
    The GPU is the fastest that I can get to work on my generation Mac Pro (ATI 4870).
    Suggestions to clear cache and prefs, given that this is a clean install of Aperture and the libraries have been created new, from scratch, seem pointless but have been done anyway in the interest of completeness.
    Energy saver has been tweaked to disable spinning down the disks. In fact, since I use Final Cut Express occasionally, I have implemented the config steps suggested by Tom Wolsky in his excellent book on that application.
    At this point, I have no more spare cycles to spend troubleshooting Aperture. I am falling back to Lightroom/Photoshop. I'll circle back later, if/when Apple gets this version of Aperture sorted out. I really want to use Aperture. I like its interface and DAM model. The native targeted adjustments are a compelling feature as is Places. And the integration with the rest of Apple's application ecosystem is a big plus. However, it is hard to get past the dog-slow performance on pretty powerful hardware.

  • Lightroom 4 (and update) slow down after editing 2 images

    Imported 74 Nikon RAW images (from D300) into Lightroom 4 (also tried with RC-1) on 2.8ghz Intel iMac with 4gb memory, approx 180GB free on 320GB HD.
    After using the brush on 2nd image the program slows to a crawl. It takes a minute or more to load the next image, a dozen or more seconds for Brush to be ready to use. Running OS-X Lion. Getting spinning wheel constantly, and it gets slower after 2nd image. I'm forced to close the program, wait a bit and restart so I can edit another photo in any reasonable time. Also, if I wait in Lightoom, doing nothing for a minute or more, things will speed up again for another 1 or 2 images (if I'm lucky).  All software and OS is up to date. No other programs running.
    Memory leak or garbage collection problems?
    Same thing happens on my Windows 7 laptop using a new Crucial 120gb SSD.
    Someone else is editing the same images on their 4 year old PC using Lightroom 3.6 and everything is fine. I'm switching back to see if it helps. Will post here with results.
    _Bob

    I can confirm the issue. Using some function (I noticed it on noise reduction too) causes a tremendous slowdown.
    I'm using a i72630QM with 8gb ram. It's fast enough to handle that stuff, at least it was on LR3.
    Edit: just to clarify what I mean with "slowdown": the program is barely reacting anymore, takes several seconds to come back from minimize, pretty much feels like crashing nonstop.
    I can say 99,99% certainty that its not hardware related.

  • Lightroom 1.2 is slow with NEF

    I use a Dualcore 9750, so my PC is fast. But it took LR sometimes a few minutes to settle a predefined preset. Anyone else the same problem ?
    Dirk

    I have complained bitterly about Lightroom's speed and now that I've turned the "Auto write to XMP" off I'm perfectly happy with Lightroom. I don't use Lightroom to adjust my photos anyway. I use Bridge, but I use Lightroom as a database to sort and find my photos, and to assign keywords (I primarily assign keywords in Bridge though). I have ~100K photos and until I turned Auto write off, Lightroom was so slow it was useless.
    I totally agree with Denis "There are so many problems with this function in LR that I think Adobe should issue an update to disable this specific function until it can be fixed."

  • Why is Lightroom 5.4 so slow in Publish services and Book module?

    I've been using Lightroom 5 for a few months now. I'm using the latest version (5.4) and have been experiencing extremely slow performance in two main areas:
    1) When in the Library module and I select (or scroll down to) the Publish services on the left it pauses for 10+ seconds before displaying the valid services. Changing between different services also takes quite a while. I now have the services minimised unless I need them.
    2) When in the Book module and I try and change a page layout the first time I select the drop down the cursor changes to a spinning circle for a while. Sometimes it comes up with the dialog saying Lightroom has experienced problems and I can either close it or wait. It usually recovers without any input from me. However, the first time I select the drop down it will close without me being about to select anything. I then have to press it again and wait for the layouts to load before I can scroll through the list. This occurs on every page. It takes probably 10-20 seconds to be able to select a new page layout. Applying the layout is very quick.
    I have upgraded my PC from a 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo with 4 GB DDR2 RAM to an I5-4670 with 16 GB DDR3 RAM and not seen much improvement in either area. In both configurations I used an SSD for the application and catalog. The photos are stored on a NAS but this has not shown any performance issues in browsing/editing photos. A review of Task Manager's CPU and RAM loading during these operations does not indicate the CPU or RAM is maxed out. I've never seen the RAM go above ~7 GB used and CPU loading (average across all 4 cores) is usually less than 50%.
    Generally the upgraded PC is showing a significant improvement in Lightroom's performance but these two areas are still painfully slow.
    Is anyone else experiencing these issues or have any ideas on what I can do to try and improve its performance??
    Thanks,
    Brett

    Hi Brett,
    I got the same issue and I am very frustrated about it.
    Its the same thing I experienced in Lightroom 4 and its still not fixed. I cant use the book module because of that. So BLURB is not getting my money. :-(
    I am waiting for that fix since more than a year, but Adobe says its a Problem which appears only for a small group of users.
    HA HA just do a Google search!!!

  • Lightroom 4.4 very slow as of today... Need Help to find out Why???

    I've been using Lightroom 4.4 since I've first downloaded and I work on photos on daily basis. Which I worked last night on photos and it worked fine generaly a bit slow as I need to upgrade my desktop computer but it worked fine.
    Today I went to use it again and continue from where I left of and it's honestly taking 1-2 minutes untill it loads up the next photo it is insanely crazy... I'm not doing anything diferent, no windows updates... Done full virus scan and it's fine, done the "MSCONFIG" and closed most of the programs on startup and also closed current programs running... so I'm only running what I need.
    I don't understand what's happening, very frustrating....
    By the way I've got a Nikon D600 which I use the RAW photos of the camera and it's been fine up untill today....

  • Lightroom 3.2 runs slow

    Can I revert back to lightroom 3.0?  I installed the upgrade earlier this week, and am having stalling problems.  I have 8G of memory and a 1T drive, so don't think it's my system.  LR3.0 ran fine, but now 3.2 is really lagging.
    Need some help.
    Margaret

    I am running 64bit 4 Gig of Ram dual core.
    My LR3 runs fine, but sometimes it just clags up and I get "no responce " the screen 'whites out',  it does recover but the sliders are slow.
    The only way to cure it is to close it down and start again. Any one with the same or knows a cure.
