Premiere runs slow while AE is also running. Memory settings?

Running the latest builds of CC 2014 - Premiere and After Effects. I've noticed on my new machine that when both programs are running, so I can easily switch between the two particular when working with Dynamically linked comps, that Premiere's playback becomes miserably slow and un-productive. Even simple :03 title templates that are dropped into the Pr sequences won't even play back realtime. As soon as I quite AE, Premiere works very smoothly.
I have 32GB installed in my new Mac Pro – so I must have my settings such that it is not distributing the memory properly to each of these programs. Or, perhaps there is a deeper issue.
Under the Memory panel I have RAM reserved for other applications set to 16GB. And I've set Optimize rendering for "Performance".
I appreciate the thoughts...

Hi Kevin –
I disabled App Nap for AE and Pr, and also executed a global command in terminal to keep any apps from "napping". Restarted, and tried again. Premiere performs slow unless AE is quit.
I've submitted a bug report.
Sorry to hear that. I will make sure your issue is heard. I appreciate you taking the time to fill out the bug report.
Thanks,
Kevin

Photoshop CC 2014 running slow while trying to edit 1.4 GB photos.

Hi,
Anyone have any recommendations for getting CC 2014 to run faster while editing large files (1+ GB)? It seems to bog down doing simple tasks like Selection. I just installed a new graphics card, a Radeon R9 270x with 2 GB GDDR5 for the GPU. Also am running 8 GB of system RAM with about 70% allocated to Photoshop. Should I bump up the RAM to 16 GB? Or maybe use better ram? ( I don't remember the brand of RAM I have now, but it's 1300 MHz). Or should I allocate more ram to Photoshop?
Or...am I just always going to have this issue when editing such large files?
As a side note, I don't run a SSD, just a 500 GB HD of which 190 GB is free. No partition.
Thanks for the help.

Graphics driver should be up to date. I literally just installed the card and drivers last night. GPU acceleration is enabled, but will that really slow things down? The card should handle most of what's thrown at it. And effect rendering isn't really all that slow, just tasks like Selection, and other toolbar type tasks. Even opening the files takes a bit of time.

Why is my macbook air running slow while web browsing, why is my macbook air running slow while web browsing

a few days ago my macbook pro that i recently purchesed for christmas started running really slow while web browsing. I looked at all the memory and all that and it was fine. any advice?

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Any change?
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Why is my macbook pro running slow and I can also hear the fan running continuously

My macbook pro started running slow last night. I turned it off and waited til this morning to turn it on again. It is still running really slow when I browse through my dock or apps and everything takes forever to open, my fan is also running pretty loud, I could not hear it running until last night. Can anyone help me out?

Okay so I followed those steps, what exactly does this mean?

SSRS reports running slow while fetching data from SQL server DB

We are currently facing issues with lots of our SSRS reports running very slow. Approx they are taking around 15-20 minutes compared to earlier which was 2-3 minutes.
Also, the SSRS reports which fetch their data from a Database is acting as Subscriber for a reporting server. That is we have an OLTP DB server whose Database say 'A' is getting replicated onto the server where say Database 'B'. On this B we have our SSRS
reports fetching the required data and are reported to be running very slow.
As a start I have checked for Index and stats to be properly updated and yes they are.
I am not sure now, from where to start analysing the issue.
I believe replication, not to be the issue as earlier also we had replication set up and never saw the slowness.
IS memory or IO causing a problem, please help as i am not sure on how to find a fix for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You need to first find out what all are slow? Is it that the whole instance is slow? How about other queries /replication etc against those databases? Are they slow?
Check the reports which are slow, try to find the slowest reports and then start looking at execution plans. Check if there is any kind of blocking happening during the time the reports run. Also try running the reports manually and see if there is a difference
in execution time. Take a look at the waitstats during the time the reports are running.

OS X Lion is running slow while using localhost

I'm experiencing slow localhost web browsing when I want to test the web that I'm building in my laptop.
Any idea, anyone?
Please advise, Thanks.

Ok guys I had the exact same problem but I think I found a solution. I just did it about 30 minutes ago and since then my MBP is running just like it used to with snow leapord. No gaurantees that i fixed the problem but this is what i did. I went to Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility. I then ran a verify disk scan and found that there were many problems with me Macintosh HD drive. It said I needed an install disk of lion to fix. Since there is no disk I thought I would experiment and this is what I did.
     1) shut down my computer and then started it back up while holding down the alt key. (this should bring up two disk options to run your computer)
     2) I chose the second option (I believe it is called something like "recovery disk" but dont quote me on that. you want to select the one that is NOT Macintosh HD)
     3) It loaded and then gave me four choises of what to do. I clicked disk utility.
      4) From there I ran the verify disk scan again then clicked repair disk.
     5) I then ran the verify disk perrmissions scan and then repaired those as well.
     6) then I restarted my computer and spotlight indexed the computer (i let it do its thing without running any programs) once it was done my computer worked so much faster and for the first time I can say, I AM GLAD I HAVE LION! I hope this is a permenant fix. Please let me know if you try this and how it works for you
Good Luck!!!

AppleScript code runs slower as an application than running from the editor

I discovered today that AppleScrip runs much faster when I run the code from the run button in Applescript Editor 2.3 than when I save the source code as an application and then run the application. I really expected the opposite. I would prefer not having to open Applescript Editor 2.3 each time I run a program, but the time difference is significant (see below). What causes this? Am I doing something wrong? I save the source code by going to File -> Save As -> File format: Application. I then run the application.
Examples (both programs manipulate data in lots of Excel spread sheet files):
Program 1- run time is 5 min, 40 sec when selecting run in Applescript Editor 2.3, and 23m, 25s when running as an application.
Program 2- run time is 7m, 12s when selecting run in Applescript Editor 2.3, and 12m, 54s when running as an application.

I tried the code "Hiroto came up with as solution that was essentially 100% effective" provided in the link. My run time went from 5m 30s when run from source code to 5m 50s when run as an application (differences in seconds could easily be my crude method of measuring time). Previously, it took 23m 25s when run as an application. Thanks, this is the solution I was looking for.
However, in searching this issue, I found similar code in a discussion topic titled "Applet speed -- Hiroto's solution followed by issues" posted Jul 27, 2008. That code would randomly end with "The variable o is not defined". I hope the new code solves this problem. The new code certainly worked great the first time I used it.

Why does ext HDD / time machine run slow?

Apologies if this is answered else where, but I can't find any answers.
I have a MBP running OSX 10.6.8. Connected to it as a Time Machine is a Freecom 400GB 28147 uk, external hardrive connected over USB 2.0. I also have a Mac Mini running 10.6.8.
When connected to my MBP, I have found that it is extremely slow to read files. I gave up using it for Time Machine a while ago as I thought there was a problem Time Machine software causing it to run slow. I have also tried to read the time machine backups through finder and they are still slow to read.
Today (don't know why i didn't do it before now) I plugged it in to my Mac Mini with USB 2.0 and found that I can read all the time machine files at lightning speed, far quicker than my MBP which can take 2-3 mins to open a folder. I have noticed that the hard drive doesn't make its usual whurring noise when im trying to open a folder using the MBP, right up until the last minute before the folder opens.
Does any one have any idea about what might be causing the problem when the the ext HDD is connected to my MBP?
Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.

How are you connected to it? Network problems could explain at least some of what you're seeing.
More often then not I don't know how long the backups take because when it becomes to annoying I stop the backup.
That guarantees that Time Machine will have to do a "deep scan" the next time, comparing everything on your system to the backups. That does take a while, but if there are no other problems shouldn't have a major impact on performance.
All of that said, I can't say for certain that there isn't something else going on. Generally the way I notice the slowdown is when my keyboard inputs come out screwy -- ingB instead of Bring, pplAication for Applicaton for example. When I know that this is happening I can work "around" it by typing the first letter, pausing for a second or two, then typing the remander. Does any of this ring an bells?
I've not heard of that specifically, but if you're connected to the Drobo wirelessly, and using a Bluetooth keyboard, there are reports of interference between the two. Try a wired keyboard temporarily, and/or different WIFI channels.

Macbook Pro running slow after games

I have been playing games like Roblox and Xplane 9 flight simulator. Roblox is a online multiplayer game, and Xplane is running from an external hard drive. After I play any of these games, my computer runs slow.
Usually it was back to normal after a reboot, but lately, even after a reboot, it is still running slow. My computer still runs slow while playing them a second time without rebooting, and even if I close them, my computer is really slow. I am starting to see my boot up times being slower by about 4-5 seconds (adding to about 15 seconds boot) and now taking around 20 seconds to boot. Does anyone know what is wrong? My computer easily out specs the recommended specs for both of these games.

The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

Normal to run slower during software updates?

Just wondering. I never noticed this on my powerbook.

If you are referring to your MacBook running slower while it is actually updating then yes, it is normal given updating can be quite a processor and disk intensive task.
By the way, it is HIGHLY recommended that while running Software Update you have no applictions running at all!

Premiere Existing Project Suddenly Running Slow

I'm currently working on a project in premiere that has been running fine up until recently. Now, when trying to edit the video it starts running extremely slow and choppy for no apparent reason.
The project that I'm using is an edited version of another project I have. I saved it as a different file and started editing it, the first version of the project runs fine while the second is extremely choppy. It's using all the same video files from the same sources and locations on the harddrive. I've tried restarting the computer, ran spyware and anti-virus software on the computer and it's clean. There's no other programs running in the background while I'm editing. I read something online about the scratch disks and tried changing their location. The video in the program monitor is running back and 1/2 resolution. Also if I try to render effects in the work area it takes an extremely long time and doesn't help the overall quality of how the video plays back during editing. Quite honestly I'm out of ideas at this point.
I'm currently working with Adobe Premiere Pro Cs5.5 Version 5.5.0 (233 (MC: 258762)). The computer itself is running Windows 7 64bit service pack 1, has an i5 processor and 4 gigs of ram, has a 4.1 for the windows experience index, and has a 600 gig hard drive with 155 gigs still free.
Any advice or ideas on how to make the editing process run smooth again would be greatly appreciated. It puts a hault to the workflow when you can't tell if an edit looks right because of choppy video.

With Win7-64, the first thing that I would look at would adding RAM. That 4GB is just about enough to run Win7-64, and not much more.
Next, do you have only one physical HDD? If so, I would look into adding at least one more, and place your Projects, media and Scratch Disks onto it. A third HDD would be a good idea too, and then separate your media, from your Project and Scratch Disks.
What are the specs. of your Source Files? If AVCHD, or any other flavor of H.264, then the i5 just might never you really smooth playback.
Good luck,

Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder running slow

Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble with CS4, which is running significantly slower than CS3 did on a older machine. The CS4 suite is installed on a Dell Precision M6400:
Windows Vista 64-Bit
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T9400 @ 2.53 GHz
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA Quadro FX 2700M Graphics with 512MB dedicated memory
The OS is running on a 57.5 GB HD (C:) and the Adobe suite is installed on a 298 GB Solid State HD (D:), except for Adobe Media Encoder, which is installed on the C: drive.
My project has 4 15-16 minute sequences. The sequences are in DV NTSC, 29.97 fps, My scratch disks are set to a folder on the C: drive. Media Cache Files and the Media Cache Database points to a folder on the D: drive.
These are some of the problems I'm having:
- Premiere Pro CS4 generates peak files every time I open a project
- It then takes 3-5 minutes to render before I can preview a 16-minute sequence
- Adobe Media Encoder takes 5 hours to render a 16-minute sequence (as flv) that has been previously rendered
- AME takes 1 hour to render every 15 minute sequence that has never been rendered before
Are my settings affecting their performance? Is there any way to improve it? Thanks.
(Premiere Pro is the only app that is slow)

The data rate for replay is one thing, the data rate from disk to memory then from memory to CPU and back the other way are different matters and ought not to be confused. It is well-established that for a computer to edit AVCHD you need top end components, and note that I said there were three tasks to distinquish with increasing hardware requirements, namely merely replaying the video, specifying edits in the editor and then the rendering. It is commonly accepted by all the industry vendors that to do remotely commercial AVCHD rendering you need a minimum Quadcore CPU then that eats data fast, in order to not let it go to waste you need a fast motherboard bus fast memory and in order for none of those to go to waste you need the fastest disk set-up you can manage. I in fact have a 4-disk RAID0 volume using SATA (I think the disk model is SATAII but I have to await return from the repair center before I can confirm). For this RAID0 volume I have run speed test software from BlackMagic because I have one of their HDTV capture cards. It recorded that this volume which remember is doing parallelised IO is just fast enough to receive a encoded HDTV stream from the BlackMagic card but too slow to receive an uncompressed HDTV stream, indeed when I tried both I found the volume did keep up with compressed but fell behind with uncompressed. Remember that with a RAID0 volume of 4 SATAII disks a given file gets spread over the four disks and hence IO is spread over those 4 3G/s data lanes. Also remember with these disks 3G/s is just a burst speed, for AVCHD we are interested in sustained serial IO which is much less.
Before my machine broke down, I found that it took 5 hours to render 33 minutes of HDTV albeit as it went along it transcoded from AVCHD to a Microsoft HD format for Vista-only. Another interesting thing is that I found that the longer this render ran the slower it became, the estimated time started at 3 hours but the actual was five and the last one third took maybe 3 hours. Because the machine broke after that run I couldn't figure the bottleneck. For my machine bear in mind that at the repair shop we found that the Quadcore had only half the necessary electrical power plugged in, the monitor software showed however that it constantly ran around 90% of whatever capacity that reduced power supply permitted. Now then we can puzzle over why it got slower and slower and yet CPU consumption remained consistent and near to full capacity, memory was not the bottleneck because that was constant at 6.4G. But you can say that this was maybe performing like a Dualcore and was hitting some sort of wall, if you had a 1 hour render with that rate of degeneration of performance factored in what would happen to the render time, and for 3 hours you could be running indefinitely. I hope when the machine comes back the correct power supply will make it behave like a Quadcore should for this type of application. Anyway I have two theories for the degradation. First is just that PrProCS4 was getting its knickers in a twist and thereby just doing more computation per minute of video to be rendered as time went by, maybe internal resource management related to OO-type programming maybe, or related to disk IO falling behind, both these theories have problems, for the latter the CPU usage should then have dropped also.
Anyways, you need really a Quadcore system and blazing fast disk to work fully with AVCHD commercially, we found an external SATAII disk so if I were you I would just go get one and move on with your life.

For AVCHD you MUST have FAST disks.
AVCHD actually has a lower data date than DV. You need lots of CPU muscle, but disk speed is really not a factor specific to AVCHD. Anything that works for DV will work just as well for AVCHD (and HDV as well).
