Performance Issues in Win 7 (Pro to Ultimate)

I use Avast as my virus protection. I have recently tried to uninstall Unity Web Player, but I can't get it out, no matter what I do (which includes removing all "unity" info in the registry, all folders with the player info, and through
the control panel which brings up an error box that won't go away and basically tells me there is a problem with almost all files on my computer).
So, I called Avast, and they showed me the Reliability Monitor. None of my computers seem to be running as they should be. I'm just bisides myself as the computer I'm currently on recently had the $#$&^ OS restarted (clean) and for what?!!!
The Area 51 is all full of errors, that started two days after that OS was installed. I haven't even looked at the laptop yet. So far as I know, only the MAC is working right!!!
I spend so much time trying to update and keep these things running right, but it's (obviously) not working, and I'm frustrated beyond words! I'm also not wealthy, so I can't even take them to someone else to see what the problem is. Crying is
not an options, but likely as my frustration meter is totally pegges at this point!!!
PCPitstop used to give me a lot of information on that might have been wrong, but it no longer does that. I am at my wits end! Any ideas? (yeah, besides taking up knitting!)

Hi,
Like Zigzag said, what's your real issue, removing Unity Web Player or computer running?
If it's removing Unity Web Player, please contact its support to ask how to remove the components remained thoroughly.
If it's system running issue, please let us know the exact situation. What's the performance issue? Did your application not running or computer slowly?

Performance issues on Macbook Pro 15"

Hey guys, I just purchased your CS5 Master Suite and am unfortunately am having incredibly frustrating peformance issues on my machine.
The laptop is brandnew and spec is as follows:

Please can you help me? I am fairly new to using a Mac as well as Photoshop and dont know what to do to improve the peformance, aside from the obvious - of increasing the allocated memory within the General Peformance settings?
An example would be where i am currently working on a 38.7Mb file with 5 layers. I dont know if that is big or not, but the issue I have is when I select either the Clone Stamp or Spot Healing Tools, they take at least a minute or so to select. Its a pain in my arse!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WITH CHERRIES ON TOP can someone help me?
Many thanks,
Cheryl

Whoa! The first thing I'd do is cut back the available memory available to Photoshop. It looks to me like you're starving the OS of RAM, especially with other applications also running. Try something like 70% or less and go from there.
Of course, with only one HDD, Photoshop's scratch disk has to compete with the swap files of the OS for the use of the only read/write head. That'll always slow you down, regardless of the amount of free space you may actually have. Consider the fastest external FW drive you can afford as a dedicated scratch disk for Photoshop.
I seriously doubt you really have over 63 TB of free disk space as you indicate (…"Only HDD in the machine with 63433GB free space"…). Perhaps you meant 63.433 GB? That's not a lot of free space for Photoshop's scratch disk and the swap files of the OS to share.

Wifi performance issues on macbook pro

Hello, I have an older MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.5 that is having serious wifi issues (really slow browsing and accessing sites) and even regularly appears to drop the wifi connection. It also has trouble printing to our HP wireless printer. I am confident the issue is with the Macbook as we have 2 other windows laptops that work fine (and can print reliably), as well as iPads and iphones that all seem to be working OK.
We are using a Timecapsule wifi router that is located close-by, and all the other devices seem to be reliably connecting.
If anyone has any suggestion or diagnostics I can run on the Macbook to help diagnose the problem it would be really appreciated.
Thankyou

32 bit Agent causing performance issue on Win 64??

My OS is Windows 2003 64 bit server.
I am using Tomcat as my application server (version 6.0.20)
Java home is set to jdk1.6.0_14 (32bit). My agent is built on a 32bit platform. [I use the agent to gather specific data for profiling on specific commands].
Even if I simply enable the java_opts to load the agent, performance of my application slows down drastically. [Even if the agent does not do anything]. The same works fine when I run the agent on a 32bit machine.
Is this a known issue? Are there any work around for the same?
Any suggestions, help will be greatly appreciated.

After effects performance issues on mac pro 12-core

Hello everyone,
I feel as if i keep making similar posts to this, but for some reason i am still not satisfied with my machine. Im using a mac pro 12-core 2.4GHz with 40gigs of ram installed and a ATI Radeon 5770 graphics card.
I finally got around to getting my SSD set up and i have all of my applications installed on it along with the OS. i also have all of my cache files set to my WD hard drive so I'm not clogging up my 120GB SSD. My SSD has 40gigs left so i figure i shouldn't go any lower than that to keep the performance of the drive at its fullest potential.
I do a lot of work in after effects CS6 and i feel that the machine is still going slow.. I was working on a project last night and when i went to do a RAM preview i kept getting the beach ball and after effects would glitch up.. what would be the main cause of this? could it have been that the destination file i was working with was on my WD drive and not the SSD?
I don't know what it is i need to keep adding to this machine to finally be satisfied with its performance.. My next investment would most likely be a GTX 570 to enable CUDA cores for open GL rendering, but i still feel that i should still be getting great performance now.
Any suggestions? maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Rick is talking about After Effects Multiprocessing. You can turn it off and on here:
Also, you've only reserved 3 GB out of 40 GB for other applications. Other apps on your computer also need memory to work and setting this number so low could cause these apps to fight with After Effects over the available memory causing AE to slow down. I would suggest starting with that number a lot higher, possibly around 10 GB. Then do a bunch of render tests to see what the best settings are for your machine.
I also highly recommend watching the "Using 'Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously' Multiprocessing" tutorial by Adobe employee Todd Kopriva on Video2Brain for more information. If you really want to learn more about getting the best performance in AE, I would go through the rest of the After Effects & Premiere Pro Performance Workshop. You'll learn a lot.

High FPS Video performance issue. Premier Pro CC.

Hello, I have been working on this project.
The recording I used are recorded with Nvidia Shadowplay at Max bitrate (50 mbps and H.264) and 60 FPS.
Now I did record the game Counter Strike: GO. And while recording the time scale was set to 1/4. So in Premier Pro I accelerated the recording by 400% to get back to real time. Which makes the videos effectively 240 fps Full-HD recordings.
Now I used the short-cut CTRL+SHIFT+F11, to see my CUDA's rendering information.
At first it plays a smooth target 60 fps, but it doesn't take long for it to go down to 3-6 fps. Which is simply impossible to work with.
Now my question is, can I tell Premier Pro to only render at say 60 or 50 fps? Basically let it skip frames in order to maintain at least 24 fps for the view port editing purposes?
Final render of the project is targeted at 60 FPS for YouTube.
Sincerely, Julian Blau
My gear:
Intel i7-920 (OC to 3.9 GHz)
Nvidia GTX 680 (MSI TwinFrozr)
Samsung 840 SSD for cache in Premier Pro's Media Settings.
Media is stored on a Regular HDD (600 GB)

I am having the same issues.
Im working on a late 2012 iMac, 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7. 32 Gb ram, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX, OS X 10.9.4.
I'm editing RED footage, about 3 TB worth for this project from a Promise Pegasus drive.
The software really slows down when using the TYPE tool and also when scrubbing through footage.
When I attempt to quite the software and restart, the interface goes away but the app is still running but says "not responding" when I attempt to force quit.
If you've figured it out since then Id love to know what works.
Thanks!

FCPX Performance Issues on Mac Pro

I've been having some trouble running FCPX on my Mac Pro.
Specs:
MacPro1,1
Quad-Core 2.66Ghz
10 Gb Memory
ATI Radeon HD 5770 & Nvidia GeForce 7300 GT
120 Gb 6Gb/s SSD for Lion & FCPX w/ a few other HDD's for media storage
I know I have an older Mac Pro but still I'd think that with an SSD, a new graphics card, and a quad core FCPX would be able to run sufficiently. The whole program just runs slow in general. Anyone have some tips on how to make it run faster? I really don't want to take FCPX out of my work-flow but if I have to I'll just have to resort to Adobe Premiere.

I'd look at what HDDs you use. I might also remove the 7300 card. I don't know what interaction it may be having but I'd look to simplify the hardware to see what might be going on. I have a MP 1.1 with the 5770 card and FCPX works just fine (although now that I have used it a bit I know I don't really like it). I don't know what the SSD does since I don't have that but if you're internal drives are fast 7200 rpm drives then I'd check the vid card interaction.

MacBook Pro performance issues w/2nd monitor and FCP7

I have this MacBook Pro bought brand-new in January 2010:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,2
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
and until today had never attached a second monitor to it. Today I hooked up my Samsung 24" to do some dual screen editing in Final Cut 7.0.3. I was unable to play back my video at full speed in the second monitor, and after a few seconds of skippy playback I'd get that error message about unable to play back video at full speed and to check my RT settings. I was using a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter. My computer has no issues playing the video in the laptop's monitor at any resolution and any quality settings (I've never changed the RT settings or anything else in the menu ever but I tried every combination this time). I then tried using my TV as a 2nd monitor with an HDMI adapter. Same performance issues. I then tried my friend's newer 13" MBP 8,1 and it performed flawlessly with the same project & footage. I feel like my $3,000 computer should outperform a $1,200 one even if mine is a year and a half older. Any advice?
Chris

Wow, you posted this perfectly to coincide with an identical problem, albeit using Logic Pro 9.1.5 rather than FCP.
Last week, I purchased a 23" external monitor to use alongside my "flagship" 2011 15" hi-res, 2.3 i7 Macbook Pro with 8Gb of RAM.
It is connected via a mini-DVI to D-sub analog (not that that should matter?) and all appeared fine.
The first issue I had was with my MBP's fan now running CONSTANTLY, when I have the second monitor attached. Even when the machine is completely idle.
When using the machine to record audio, this is a fairly hefty problem and not something I had anticipated - indeed why would I anticipate such a thing?
What is far, far worse though is that over the last few days I have had repeated problems with performance drop-outs and errors in Logic and I have trying to fathom out why. Realising that the only major system change made, was the above monitor connection, I ran some tests.
I restarted my MBP, no other apps were running and with my new 23" monitor attached acting as main display with MBP built in display on as secondary
I loaded up a fairly demanding Logic project which was hitting 40% to 60% CPU usage when using the built in MBP display last week
I ran activity monitor and had CPU usage history open
The above project now repeatedly overloads and playback halts in a given 8 bar section - with CPU at 80% most of the time
I disconnected the external display, no shut down, I just let the machine switch to the built in 15".
Started the same project, the same 8 bar section and hey presto - CPU usage back down to 40% to 60%
The above was reflected in the CPU usage history with the graph showing CPU use down by about a half, when running this Logic project WITHOUT the external display.
There is a very useful benchmark Logic project that has been used as a test by many users to gauge Logic performance on given Apple hardware.
The project has about 100 tracks pre-configured with CPU intensive plugins, designed to tax the CPU.
The idea is that you load up the project with tracks muted, press play and then unmute the tracks steadily until Logic us unable to play contiunously because of a system performance error.
On my MBP, with the external monitor NOT attached, I can play back around 50 of the audio tracks in this benchmark project.
With the monitor attached, I can get about 22 tracks playing.... which is actually a far worse a performance drop (-50% I think!?) than with the first example!
I did also try with just the external monitor attached and not the MBP display and performance was about 10% better than with dual monitors - so still extremely poor, to say the least.
This machine is the flagship MBP and has a dedicated AMD Radeon HD6750 GPU which should take care of most if not ALL graphics processing - I mean it's capable of running some pretty demanding games!
Putting aside the issue of constant fan noise, there is no reason AT ALL, why using an external monitor should tax the i7 CPU this way - it's not as though Logic is graphically demanding... far from it.
I am on 10.6.8, Logic 9.1.5, all apps up to date via "Software Update".
I will of course, be contacting Apple...

My macbook pro is suddenly having major performance issues

Hi,
I´ve been having some performance issues with my Macbook Pro (late 2006) and was hoping that someone here might be able to help me figure out what it is.
It all started about a month ago with the disc utility giving me an error.
The error said something about the amount of threads being wrong.
I popped in the install dvd and fixed the problem. I also did a complete reinstall and upgraded from leopard to snow leopard.
There was nothing wrong with the S.M.A.R.T.-status of the drive.
At the same time the hardrive error came around my cpu started to choke. The cpu-problem didn´t go away after I repaired the disc and formatted the drive and installed 10.6.
Now it feels like the cpu is running way below it´s capacity. Even the simplest of tasks make my computer choke.
My audio applications are working at about half the speed of what they used to handle. Converting a wave file to mp3 takes about twice as long, and converting a video is even worse.
I haven´t had any problems since I bought it in 2006. It is still running smooth - except for the lack of speed. It´s not really acting weird or being unstable, just slow. Way slower than it is supposed to be (and was before).
And it happened overnight.
I also had a kernel panic last week. But after restarting the system it went away and I haven´t seen it since.
My specs are: C2D 2.16, 3GB RAM, 120GB 5400rpm hdd, OS 10.6.4...
Would really appreciate help of any/every kind!
I fear that this might be the end of my work horse

Well, kind of a good news bad news situation for you.
Bad news, is that your hard drive is dying. Make sure you back things up while you still can. Disk Utility's SMART status is generally just this side of useless I'm afraid. I've seen plenty of drives that are completely toast, that will show up as "Verified".
Good news, is that as repairs go, this is close to as cheap as they get. It's up to you if you want to attempt doing it yourself, but be sure to look for some kind of take apart guide first. Look it over, and if you're even a little unsure, take it somewhere. Shortly after this model they started making it a lot easier to do HDD upgrades, not that it does you a lot of good.
Anyway, even for a system as old as yours, this is a very cost effective repair if everything else is still working fine, and you're satisfied with the system. It's also a good opportunity to upgrade, give yourself a little extra space. No need to go overboard, but maybe a 250GB drive or so. A touch over 2X the space you had before, which can be had on the cheap. Just about any 2.5" SATA drive should work in that system.

Dynamic Link from After Effects CC to Premiere Pro CC Performance Issues

I just updated my After Effects and Premiere Pro to CC and since doing so I've found numerous performance issues. One that is seriously hurting my workflow is the poor performance of the dynamic link with After Effects compositions into Premiere Pro. In CS6, you could make a change to the AE composition, save it, click over to Premiere Pro and it would quickly update and you can play your timeline and preview your changes. You could also move the clips around and add cross dissolves and watch the changes quickly in Premiere Pro CS6. Now, since updating to CC, if you save the composition in AE and click over to Premiere Pro it won't update on its own. Sometimes it just shows a single frame of the AE composition. I found that if you right click and "Edit Original", go into AE and then click back over to Premiere Pro and it will finally update. But if you make any changes to the placement of the AE composition on the timeline, or add a cross dissolve, fade, etc. it again won't play the AE composition any longer. After you make any changes to the AE composition you have to right click and go to "Edit Original", go into AE, and then click back over to Premiere Pro.. Then it will finally update.

Thanks Kevin.
Unfortunately in my case the export doesn't solve the issue. The video only looks good while in the composition... I've tried exporting it in all the different formats with several codecs, but to no avail...
You can check my own post in the After Effects forum: AE linked composition looks different in Premiere

Welcome to the forum.
First thing that I would do would be to look at this Adobe KB Article to see if it helps.
Next, I would try the tips in this ARTICLE.
If that does not help, a Repair Install would definitely be in order.

Premiere Pro 2014 8.1 Poor Performance Issues

I'm having the following issues across Premiere, Audition, and Media Encoder:
1. Slow, choppy, unpredictable playback in the timeline
     -I'm using a Blackmagic Ultrastudio 4K for monitor output, and that plays out smooth in general
2. Overall UI lag
     -Clicking between files
     -Clicking between Sequence tabs
     -Clicking on clips in Icon view and scrubbing is slow
3. Export and Media Encoder Presets buggy
     -Cannot change the settings for codecs (button is non-selectable)
     -Media Encoder crashes when exporting certain presets (h.264, etc.)
4. Specifically, I've tried transcoding a ProRes LT 1080p 23.98 Sequence > ProRes LT 720p 59.94 Quicktime for playback on an Atomos Samurai Blade. This workflow
worked fine until I updated to 8.1.
The only solutions I've seen thus far have been to trash prefs and clean the cache, but I honestly think there may need to be a major cleanup on Adobe's end.
Anyone else having issues like these?
-E

Hi E,
I have a list, which I'll amend according to your system.
Try the following:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU driversYou have AMD, so you can't do this with Mac OS X.
Trash preferences
Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write
This one causes a lot of performance issues in Mavericks and YosemiteImportant: Pay attention to the step about “Apply to enclosed items…”
You can also rename the folders recommended in the blog post
Delete media cache
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installedThis was a bug fixed in 8.0.
Repair permissions
In Sequence Settings > Video Previews, change the codec to one that matches your footage
Disconnect any third party hardwareDisconnect any BMD or external drives (if you can)
See if changing the setting for the Mercury Playback Engine to Software only helps
Do a test with a brand new project and non-QuickTime/ProRes source and see if you have those issues.Projects updated from 8.0 and 8.0.1 might have issues updating to 8.1.
Make sure all other applications are closed, including web browsers and other Adobe applications.
Disable App Nap
Reboot
Report back if anything here worked for you.
Thanks,
Kevin

Anyone using a 12 Core Mac Pro? I have HORRIBLE performance issues .. Help!

After the latest 10.7.4 Mac OS X update I have extremely horrible performance issues with AE ... and they were not so great before the update.
It is still stabilizing ... but an 1:19 clip in SD is taking 12 HOURS TO analyze and stabilize. !!!
The 12 cores are barely being used and this problem has been an issue since I purchased the suite over a year ago.
Does anyone else have problems using AE on their 12 CORE MAC PRO?
REPLY ONLY IF YOU HAVE A 12 CORE MAC PRO PLEASE.
There must be a problem because since the update ... Adobe Encore is PERFECT .. and ALL 12 CORES MAX OUT and the encoding is quick!!
I also have major problems between PP and AE using Dynamic link .. and slow renders in PP.
Everything else works fine .. other apps / other vendors.
I am calling Adobe today.

Thank you for your time.
I am using a 12 Core 2.93 GHZ with 32 GB RAAM and a NVidia GTX 285.

Only half of my hyperthreaded processors are active when using AE "Warp Stabilizer". This issue was addressed before in the Forums. There was no solution. I dont' know if it is any better in CS 6.
Also the automatic saving of all linked compositions while using the dynamic link feature bewteen PP and AE causes huge inoperatable waiting times .. unbearable. My guess is that the new "Global Performance Cache " fixes this ... which I consider update to a terrible problem .. but they sell it as a feature ( Ill go into that later.
Question:
What RAID card are you using?
Do you use the Warp Stabilizer?

Performance issues with Motion (position, scale, rotate) and GTX 590

I'm experiencing performance issues with my Premiere Pro CC when I scale, position or rotate a clip in the program monitor.
I have no performance issues with playback! It's only, when i move something with the mouse or by changing the x,y-values of Position in the Motion-Dialog in video effects.
Premiere then lags terribly and updates the program monitor only about once per second - this makes it very difficult and cumbersome to work and position things.
On a second Premiere installation on my laptop, performance is fine and fluid - allthough it doesn't have GPU support and is a much slower computer.
I'm pretty sure this has somehow to do with my graphic card, which is a Nvidia GTX 590.
I was told by the support, that it is actually a dual graphic card, which is not supported/liked by Premiere.
The thing is, until the latest Premiere update, I did not have performance issues at all with this card.
I also read on the forum that others with the GTX 590 did not experience any problems with it
So where does this come from?
There is no change in performance whether or not I activate Mercury Playback Engine GPU acceleration.
I also tried deactivating one of the 2 gpus, but there also was no change.
Does anyone else know this problem and has anyone a solution?
I'm running Premiere CC on a Win 7 64bit engine, Nvidia GTX 590, latest driver (of today),

I am suffering from the same phenomenon since I updated just before christmas, I think.
I am hardly able to do scaling, rotating and translating in the program monitor itslef - whil motion has been highlighted in teh effect controls.
In the effect controls I can scale, rotate etc however.
Also I have noticed there is a yellow box with handles in teh program monitor. I remember it was white before.
I cannot figure out what to change in my preferences. What has happened?
best,
