Slow/Laggy scrolling in Library

I have a library of 24,325 files. When attempting to scroll up and down with my mouse's scroll wheel in the library with all files showing, I get a delay of a half second or so before the list moves. This is absolutely maddening.
Is anyone else experiencing this??? Does anyone have a fix?
I have a serious machine (dual processor, Gig of RAM, XP Operating system, library and files all on RAID 0 partitions). If this machine can't smoothly scroll my library, nothing can.
Apple, please please please please fix.

If this is the way that iTunes is designed, then the design is flawed. The reason I say this is because the other MP3 manager I use on a regular basis (MediaJukebox) has absolutely no issues at all dealing with the library of this size. Scrolling is instantaneous, searches are very, very quick and the overall experience (at least with respect to the responsiveness of the interface) is much, much nicer. I would boot iTunes altogether if it weren't for its superior iPod support, and of course the Music Store.
And good guessing on the size of the iTunes library files. The .itl file is 22MB and the .xml file is 28MB. That's not that big... iTunes should put those things in RAM and do some intelligent cacheing and I should have no issues.
One other thing, this is new as of version 5. Version 4 handled scrolling fine, even with the large library. Something changed, and changed for the worse.
And no, I don't have the artwork window open.

Scrolling in Library mode is slower, than in Develop Mode

I've got quite a disent hardwere (i3, 6GB) and I don't use big catalogs, I render 1:1 previews, but Lr works really slow, espesially scrollind in Library mode.

Sorry I couldn't answer What Operating system? What LR version?
What do you mean by "scrolling"? (Scrolling between images in grid view? Scrolling between images in loupe mode? Scrolling inside image in loupe mode when viewing it 1:1?)
Also, could you define your "slow"? For example "when I press right arrow (next image) in loupe mode, it takes 5 secods before image is fully rendered."
Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

Premiere Elements 11 + Windows 8 pro = slow timeline scrolling!

Hi!
I experience slow redraw of the timeline clips when I scroll,
which makes it very difficult, slow and unpleasant to edit!
This in nothing new to you all, as I have read in many posts about this problem!
And everyone is asking (below these posts) questions like:
"do you have the latest QuickTime codecs?" or "do you have the latest graphics drivers?"
or that our pc are slow or that we work with strange video formats or to change to no thumbnail in the clips or that its
the antivirus fault or whatever.
It is not all these!
As I have read:
-It can happen in many versions of Premiere Elements(maybe in all of them, I don't know)
-It can happen in both ATI/AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards
-It can happen in all hardware configurations CPU/motherboards
-It can happen in all windows versions and both 32/64 bit
So I am guessing it is not our fault.
Can Adobe finally fix this problem with an update? It's been so many versions until now!
please... Is it so difficult?
Can't the programmers see what are we talking about? Can't they fix the programme?
Before I bought Premiere Elements 11 I had the 9 version in windows 7(64bit)
The same problem, slow/laggy timeline redraw when moving back and forth.
The solution I found was to disable the Aero feature in windows 7!
And oh my god... the timeline then was so fast and smooth, I was so happy to edit!
So I compromised with that(disabling aero).
Recently I have upgrad the same PC to windows 8 pro(64 bit) AND bought Premiere Elements 11. (hoping for speed in every possible way!)
The slow timeline scrolling still happens in both PRE9 and in PRE11.
And guess what? in windows 8 pro you can't disable the "aero feature"!!!
You can only change some visual settings, and even if I disable all of them, nothing changes!
So are we really stuck with the laggy timeline scrolling in windows 8???
Premiere Elements 11 is so much faster in all other things (exept the timeline scrolling)
In the preview window for example. It can play really smooth, in real time WITHOUT render preview
some pretty difficult compositions I make! multiple layers, with greenbox and many other filter effects!
Which in Premiere Elements 9 (in the same PC) the preview play was very laggy!
(don't forget that with aero disabled in PE9(win7), same PC, same complicated compositions, timeline scrolling superfast!)
I think they made some pretty good graphic card use in the preview play in PRE11!
I present and edit a youtube show with Premiere Elements with demanding compositing and everyone thinks I use Premiere Pro CS
version or After Effects CS. But I don't, I want to be legal and I can't aford the prices of these applications
so I buy and use the Elements series which are very powerful as well, if you know what to do and HOW to do it!
See for youselves my show I posted today(in Greek, I am from Greece), which I edited in PRE11.(pefrect greenbox, perfect!)
http://youtu.be/HdKAKI6P8tU?hd=1&t=1m28s (open in a new window)
or move time to 1:28 from the below youtube video window.
But unfortunattely the timeline scrolling made my editing unpleasant and slow!
My question is: Will I, (now that I have upgraded to windows 8 pro 64bit) have to edit ALL my next shows/videos
with the slow/laggy timeline scrolling??? please tell me something to hope for...

I have an ATI/AMD FirePro v4800 1GB GDDR5 with the latest drivers for this card (8.982.8.3)
Is my video card not compatible?
this slow redraw of the timeline happened way before
and everytime a new driver version came up I had installed it but that didn't change anything.
Only with aero disabled I would enjoy a fast timeline scrolling in windows 7. (now, not possible in windows 8 pro)
Bill how can you explain this? Same video card and everytime with the SAME NEW drivers, aero on=slow timeline, aero off=fast timeline!
Is there some kind of a fix that we can always wait from our graphics card companies to include to new drivers??? (for how long???)
or maybe is it all up to Adobe and its own programme?
Are we all supposed to have old video display drivers?
Can someone make some kind of a poll for people who have this problem to vote to see where this problem apears, in which configurations, in which graphics cards? (assuming they have latest drivers)
so we all finally know what/where is the problem.
I love the premiere elements series and thats why I want this to be solved.

Safari 6.1 slow behavior/scrolling on some webpages (15" rMBP with OSX 10.7.5)

Hi,
I have the above setup, and after updating Safari to version 6.1, I began experiencing very choppy/laggy scrolling on most websites, as well as some other slow behaviors (tabs do not open/close immediately, some website functions are slow to react). I tried disabling my extensions and changing the smooth scrolling setting in sys pref, to no avail. Something very curious that I noticed was that if there is an embedded Youtube video on a site that normally has this issue, like a forum, everything becomes very fast and smooth, but only on the page with the video. Youtube is also one of the sites that is not giving me trouble.

Slow PDF Scrolling

On my 15" rMBP, my PDFs are very slow to scroll. It will be the only PDF open and I have open each file in it's own window checked.
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks!

Back up all data. Quit Preview if it's running.
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following items, if they exist:
Caches/com.apple.Preview
Containers/com.apple.Preview
Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
Preferences/com.apple.Preview.SandboxedPersistentURLs.LSSharedFileList.plist
Saved Application State/com.apple.Preview.savedState
Launch the application and test.

Slow to scroll

All of a sudden my Logic Pro X is super slow, even scrolling up and down through the tracks/up and down on the page to see tracks below off the screen, the program is slow, staggers, stops and starts. I have maybe 25 tracks but very little plugins running, never had this problem before, is there a reason I am missing?
I do not have any plugins going that are not native to Logic X Pro
I restarted my computer and the external hard drive I am running the files from, as well as my audio interface?

Thank you so much, I downloaded and ran the program:
When logic x is open, with me simple scrolling up and down the screen with my trackpad on a project with automation I got this (I am using Mavericks still never updated).
I am going to try a brand new project and add automation and see if it happens right away.
Problem description:
Whenever I have automation in my project, the project slows down whenever I try to do something, even as simple as scrolling up and down the screen.

Since I installed IOS 8.0.2 (was ok on IOS7),on my iPad 4 "photos" don't scroll properly, it freezes and staggers, it's really slow to scroll to the bottom of the page (in Album, Events From My IMac) it's very annoying!

I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure.

Slow Performance with large library (PC)

I've been reading many posts about slow performance but didn't see anything addressing this issue:
I have some 40000 photos in my catalog and despite generating previews for a group of directories, LR still is very slow in scrolling through the pics in these directories.
When I take 2000 of these pics and import them into a new catalog - again generating previews, the scroll through the pics happens much much faster.
So is there some upper limit of recommended catalog size for acceptable performance?
Do I need to split my pics up by year? Seems counter productive, but the only way to see the pics at an acceptable speed.

I also have serious performance issues, and i don´t even have a large database catalog, only around 2.000 pictures, the db file itself is only 75 mb big. Done optimization - didn´t help. What i encountered is that the cpu usage of LR 1.1 goes up and STAYS up around 85% for 4-5 minutes after programm start - during that time, zooming in to an image can take 2-3 minutes! After 4-5 minutes, cpu usage drops to 0%, the background task (whatever LR does during that time!) has finished and i can work very smoothly. preview generation cannot be the problem, since it also happens when i´m working in a folder that already has all previews build, close LR, and start again instantly. LR loads and AGAIN i´ll have to wait 4-5 minutes untill cpu ussage has dropped so i can continue working with my images smoothly.
This is very annoying! I will stop using LR and go back to bridge/acr/ps, this is MUCH much faster. BUMMER!

Laggy scrolling/animations and tricky touchpad on MacBook Pro w/Retina Display

As much as I loved the form factor and screen on the 15" 2.6ghz MBP w/Retina Display, the laggy scrolling, animations and intermimitently non-functional tap-to-click made me return it to Best Buy. A $3000 computer (after tax) shouldn't have problems that my Early 2011 MBP doesn't have. I thought the 10.8.2 update might fix this, but unfortunately it has not, even after a clean wipe.
Side note - 10.8.2 also made my 2011 MBP's battery literally drop by 1% a minute when on battery power. It's also ridiculously hotter. Unusable as a portable device.
Another side note - Best Buy really dillutes/degrades Apples great brand. The Apple Specialist in my local Best Buy in Dublin, CA is quite cranky and condescending. That will be the last time I buy an Apple product from Best Buy.

Cover flow slow to scroll in Vista with Nvidia GeForce 8400M

I recently purchased a new laptop with vista service pack 1. One issue is the cover flow motion is really slow to scroll compared to my last computer using xp. Does anyone else have this problem or know of a fix?

I have had the same problem with my new Dell XPS notebook since I bought it in mid Feb. I have googled the problem and a lot of users are also having this problem. Cover flow mode is painfully slow and unuseable. If you find a fix, please post.

Make sure that all of your music is in iTunes. Once you have made sure that all of the music that is on your phone is on the computer that you sync with, go to Settings>General>Usage, slide your finger from left to right across the music portion, delete the library, restart the phone, then sync the library back to your phone via iTunes.

How to slow Motion Scroll Effects and anchors?

I am using a down pointing arrow to cue the user to scroll down to the next section. I thought I could automate by linking the arrow to an anchor that is positioned down the page. Cool, it works. However, the jump is so fast that all the fancy Motion Scroll Effects I'm using on the next section are nearly invisible. I see that this site does what I want when you press the "Scroll Down" graphic: Digital Marketing Agency in Johannesburg, South Africa
Is it possible to slow down the browser scroll when jumping to an anchor, using only Muse?
Thanks,
JohnS

There's no way of controlling the speed of the scroll, other than the distance between your trigger and the anchor points. Since it uses an ease in control, the closer the anchor is to the trigger, the slower the scroll will be and likewise, the further away the anchor, the quicker it scrolls.

FF 19 + Newest Adobe Reader = Failure. The newest update to FF with the newest Adobe reader is absolutely horrible. It is slow to load, slow to scroll pages,

Using FF19 and apparently Adobe reader 11.0.2.0. This new version is HORRIBLE, very slow to scroll pages, and flat out does not work with some work web pages I need. How do I revert to a previous version of Adobe to get back to the old format and layout that works well? I tried disabling the plug-in in FF and it did not change.

hello, firefox 19 has introduced its own integrated pdf viewer - if you want to switch back to the plugin you've used before to view pdfs just go to firefox options > applications & scroll down and define the default action for the '''portable document format (pdf)'''.

Slow, laggy, freezing, and looks terrible

So yesterday I updated to the most recent version of Skype for Windows desktop - primarily to fix the stupid issue where you can't change or see group chat pictures in any newly created groups.
And in the new update I find the 'new and improved' version to be incredibly slow, laggy, and occasionally freezes - to say nothing of the UI looking like pure straight unadulterated trash that takes up way too much space and looks like a giant text-messaging window on a phone. Like someone ate nothing but pale blue and white food and then vomited on a screen.
(was going to imgur link the image but I guess that's "not permitted". see attached instead.)
I guess I can only ask "why." I mean, yay, group icons work again (though they never should have broken in the first place.) Bold and italic text, yay (though now with stupid and obtrusive ads.) And now it's constantly slow to load, particularly slow to switch between chats and load history, freezes or crashes, and looks like garbage. I'm just wondering before I go back to the old version, why this would be considered 'new' and 'updated.'
Also, nice of the site to lose this post after I had to log in prior to posting it. You know, most modern and not broken websites with a message board continue on to post the message after prompting you to log in. Sites that aren't crap, that is. Just saying~

Coming here to rant.
I'm having all the same problems you are. It's been MONTHS since the update and they still haven't fixed any of the problems you mentioned. (I just updated. I reverted back to the old version until I got tired of messages pestering me to update) The window is slow to open after being minimized. It freezes for several seconds whenever I switch between chats. It takes forever to load messages. And more.
I can understand them sticking with the ugly interface and all that. But why can't they fix the bugs?

Qt4 updated to 4.8.7: Slow text scrolling and higher load time.

System is fully upgraded, and i just noticed that every qt4 application has become incredibly slow when using QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM=native (slow dolphin scrolling, slow konsole scrolling)
It is probably related to text antialiasing, because if i disable subpixel hinting in konsole, it start to scroll fast.
Reverting back to 4.8.6 fixes it.
I want to use native instead of raster because:
1) when used remotely via x2go and ssh, qt apps are very fast using QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM=native
2) with QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM=native one is able to retain RGB subpixel hinting even over trasparent windows.
I'm using nvidia-340xx 340.76 with a geforce 9800GT and freetype2-infinality 2.4.12-2 if it matters.
Anybody can help please?
-EDIT
This does not seem to be related to an update of the xorg-server, nor to the graphic driver; i notice the same behaviour when using a remote (fast) vnc connection.
I bet it is a QT4 bug; someone could test please?

It is not just the text scrolling under native graphicssystem to be slow.
All qt4 apps with text edit widgets are now slower to open, even with raster graphicssystem.
Gambas3 ide takes 6 seconds to start; on 4.8.6 it starts in 2 seconds here.
Just reported both:
