Very slow rending thumbnails

I have just updated my Aperture library using masters stored in a UBS drive. Browsing from project to project is painfully slow. Aperture is extremely slow in rendering the thumbnails. Using Aperture 2. Doesn't Aperture keep thumbnails within its own folders for referenced files?

That's definitely not right, I use a 5d2 and if you have 4gb of Ram you should be fine. Check these things:
1. Make sure your GPU is set to Dedicated/performance under the energy saver system preferences.
2. Go into your aperture preferences and under "previews" turn off "new projects automatically generate previews", and turn on "use embedded JPEG from camera when possible".
3. Unless you want to use high quality previews, turn on a size limitation for previews down to the size of your monitor.
Other tips:
If you have a new macbook, you can also benefit from booting into 64 bit kernel (from my experience) hold down 6 and 4 while booting or read up on how to activate the 64 bit kernel by default in the Boot.plist preference file.
I also recommend not using a "managed" library which will allow you to move your master RAWS around if needed, and create a workflow opportunity similar to video editing with online/offline media. The easiest way to do this is to decide on a folder you want to store all your RAW files, and then in the aperture import dialog where it says "store files in aperture library" - change that to your own folder, and decide on your own subfolder structure - (for example, use /"project name"/"year"/"month") or whatever makes most sense for you. I shoot weddings and never shoot more than 9999 pictures a wedding, so I just use "/project name" - This way when I need to archive a job and its raw masters, I can pull that Folder of Raws off my machine and move it on to backup, but i can still keep the library intact if I need to find a file, I can easily pull the raw back online.

Very slow render on my beast of a machine

Hello, I have an issue whereby my rendering is very slow. I am using premier elements 12 with a windows 8.1 computer that has an 8-core amd 8350 processor, 8 gbs of ram, and I have an AMD 7970 6gb video card crossfired with an AMD 280x video card. Crossfire probably doesnt even work, but even with just the 280x, it should be faster than this.
I capture game footage, which is captured in xvid format, which I then import into PE12. I don't add any effects, other than some color tweaking, and some brightness/contrast tweaking. Then I export it in the same specifications it was captured in (1080p 30fps). A 7 minute video takes about 20 minutes to render/export using MP4 codec. If I try to use other codecs, it takes even longer. On my Mac Pro, using other programs like iMovie, this sake video would take like 2 minutes, and it only has a 4-core processor at a much slower clock speed, and only has a 6870 amd video card, which is like 1/4 the power. I feel that either the 8-cores aren't being used, or something else is wrong. No rendering that doesn't involve complicated effects should take longer to render than the footage length is. If the video is 10 minutes long, it should take 1 minute to render if it doesn't have chroma keying or anything heavy like that. How do I fix this?

Thanks for the tip. Bandicam already works when I choose "motion jpeg", and it works very nicely as far as being able to record in very high quality without disrupting my gaming performance. The issue is that it still takes longet to render a video than the length of the video itself. So a 6 minute clip, for example, will take about 15-20 minutes. This is unacceptable when ther are no major effects going on, such as chromakeying. I should be able to render atleast at speed play (ie, if a video is 2 minutes, it should take no more than 2 minutes), based on performance I get on my lesser Mac with a lesser CPU, lesser video card etc. It may be the rendering settings. I am using the stock "youtube widescreen HD" preset in PE12, and i manually change teh 720p to 1080p (like my footage). What else can I try?
The only thing I can think of is that PE12 doesnt use 8 cpu cores, or it doesnt use OpenCL. Does it? I cannot find any settings in PE12 for "enable multicore processing" or "enable openCL" etc.

Very slow render, why?

Hi, am running FCP 5.1.4, and rendering has recently become extremely slow. Has anyone got some suggestions of tests, procedures etc I might run, to get things back up to speed?
have tried cleaning up the drive, repairing permissions and deleting thumbnail cached files, but no luck.
Please help!
Thanks

So were the previous speedy renders with exactly the same settings?
If so, a few things to try:
Run something like MacJanitor, or MacCocktail to run Cron routines
Run Diskwarrior on drives
Delete fcp preferences
Relocate thumbnail caches (a long shot, but has fixed sluggishness in fcp loading so worth a try).
Repair disk permissions
Also, describe your hardware configuration and in particular your hard drives. Disconnecting unnecessary drives might help.

Very slow render times....I think

So I'm running an 08 aluminum (non unibody) macbook pro. 2.2ghz 4GB ram, 500GB 5400 RPM HDD (my 7200 momentus XT failed). I'm rendering about 1:30 of video with two filters of magic bullet looks, and one filter of Marcalli. Its HD video, 1440x1080 from my Sony A33. The videos take almost an HOUR to render that minute and a half or so, is this normal? I can't figure out why everything si so damn slow. I'm a photographer by trade so I'm used to faster renderings, but this seems a bit excessive.
HELP

That sounds about normal.
90 seconds time-line rendering in 60 minutes. Your system is at least 30 times slower than a fast system, so, yes, it sounds about right.
On a fast system this would translate to 90 seconds in around 2 minutes. If your system is 60 x slower, then it would mean 1 minute on a fast system.
Nothing to worry about, Nothing seems out of the ordinary, just a slow system, that's all.

Very slow editing, playback sluggy even after render ...

I working on a movie, footage is mostly 1080p 50 fr. For the moment the movielenght on the timeline is only 8 minutes and editing is becoming so hard because of the slowness of some tasks...
I explain:
1) At start up loading this latest project is slow
2) Media asset pannel: thumbnails of footage is loading very slow when you go to another folder
3) Pre-viewing of (a part of) the footage already added to the timeline (expertmode) is sluggy, but sometimes even when pre-rendering with the renderbutton is done (the render markers are correct placed) !
Also a crash op PE sometimes happens (but not so frequent)
Final rendering to a format (dvd, mp4 etc) works well but ofcourse it's difficult to make a good movie if pre-viewing of the timelinefootage is not working well ...
So my question is if I replace my internal (ram) memory in my pc from 8 GB to 16 GB, would this fix all this 3 problems ?
I have only 2 memory banks, now with 2x4 gb so I would have to buy 2x8 that's more than 100 euro (more than PE itselfs thus ...).
My pc works well for a recent game like Far Cry 3 so I don't need the memory for other programs ... So I want to be shure if this will fix it.
Finally, my config: PC has a small ssd with win 7 home premium and PE 11 dutch, all other data on traditional HD, separate ghraphics card:

That's almost the same as right-click and runas admin, the only difference is that you don't have to right-click. The problem with this solution I mentioned above already:
windows acts than like you are the admin and the admin documentsfolderlocations is the standard instead of yours folderlocations (so all your footage, pictures and all data you want to use in your project should be than in the admin documentsfolders instead of your own user folder ....
Than it's better to change the useraccountpermission in admin, that's what I did now. So I'm working with an account with full adminrights now. That's not very safe but I want to give it a try for the time of the project-in-use . I've updated also the graphic and audio drivers.
I've also disabled temporary AV.
All this didn't change anything for loading the thumbnails when you open a project. It still takes minutes to load and the first time after startup opening a subfolder in the assetspanel also takes again minutes (only the first time after startup, if you later go back in that subfolder thumbnails are showed almost directly).
Play-back of timeline seems almost ok now, but this was already yesterday the case (since the scratchlocations didn't change anymore)
In the manual I read that it is advised to defrag the scratchlocations from time to time. But win vista/7/8 have auto defrag ... ?

I have an iMac4.1 and my iPhoto is very slow and the thumbnails correspond to the wrong pictures. How do I fix this? Or is my iMac too old? Will getting a new iMac solve this problem?.

I realize is only 512MB of memory but I want to make sure that a new iMac will solve this problem. Can the new iPhoto handle 10GB or more of photos? Or do I have to go to Picasa anyways in which case I can buy any computer to do that?

The model of Mac is not partcularly relevant, it's the version of the OS and iPhoto that matter.
iPhoto - since 2006 - is good for 250,000 images.

Very slow scrolling window thumbnails clips

Very slow scrolling windows with thumbnail clips. The more files in the event, the worse it gets. It is very frustrating. Is in others it is the same? I have MacOookPro i7 early 2011, thunderbolt drives RAID0, 16GB memory, FCPX 10.0.7. After the hardware is decent.
Give some feedback, thank you.
P.S. I might add that this disadvantage are found from version 10.0.0.

You might want to look at either booting from your install dvd (insert, restart and hold 'C' down) and running disk repair from Utilities. Alternatively, and I always suggest any Mac user should have at least one, a 3rd party disk utility like DiskWarrior (there are others) is extremely useful.

Very slow to show thumbnails of EOS 5DMarkII

I've just bought a mackbook pro with preinstalled aperture 2 (snow leopard 10.6).
I use a canon 5DMarkII since few months and I would like to import my images into aperture.
I've imported 20 images in a new project. But, the creation of thumbnails is very slow (after 2 hours there is no thumbnails visible...).
If i visit this page http://www.apple.com/fr/aperture/specs/raw.html the 5DmarkII is not supported. Is that true ?
It's terrible if aperture 2 is not able to work with the camera.
Do you have any experience ?
Thanks

That's definitely not right, I use a 5d2 and if you have 4gb of Ram you should be fine. Check these things:

What does 'include render files' option mean for when I duplicate a project. I deselected it and the duplicated file is very slow so maybe this has affected it. It's a shame cause original project is deleted. Have I lost the rendered files? Thanks

Yes, if you duplicate without the render files and delete the original project you lose the render files. But render files get recreated - automatically if you have it set in the preferences (which is the default option). It just takes time.

Lightroom is very slow, utilizes 100% CPU, then freezes or closes program. How do I fix it?

I am having a problem with Lightroom 5 being very slow, utilizing 100% CPU, then freezing or closing the program. How do I fix it?
I just upgraded to LR5 from LR3 on Sunday as well as CS6 from CS5 (which I have not tried out yet). I spent several hours talking with Vamil, from LR Support Staff yesterday. He was extremely helpful and kind and tried everything he could think of while remote-handling my PC and talking with me on the phone. He deleted preferences, cache, temp files, updated graphics with a new replacement file from AMD site, then re-downloaded and reinstalled LR5.
It is still very slow and then freezes and closes down with a message of utilizing 100% CPU. Within several seconds of using the brush in Develop, I started having lots of problems. I could not even move the picture around. The side screens would not disappear like they should. And I could not move to another picture. The day before I spent several hours trying to work on just 1 picture. After all the changes yesterday, I tried to move from picture number 1 to about 130 after having not touched it for 10 minutes, and a half hour later, it still said, "Processing" with no picture coming up, just a blank prieview pane.
LR Support suggested I get a new CPU though he thought according to specs mine should be ok and other programs were running fine.
My PC is only 2 years old.
I talked to HP briefly about CPU updates for my HP PC. He said I probably do not have a problem but suggested I run self-diagnostics and maybe buy a new CPU anyway.
I ran diagnostics listed through the HP Support Assistant connection on my PC. All was ok.
I still researched if I could buy a compatible CPU upgrade. I cannot even find any CPUs still selling that are listed for my PC. Best Buy Store said they could not even order a compatible CPU. They said my Bus speed may not be big enough, so they suggest I get a new PC. What Bus speed do I need?
I have the following PC Setup:
     AMD Phenom II X6 1045T Processor 2.70 GHz with 6 Cores
          with 2700 MHz Base, 3200 MHz Boost, and 4000 System Bus Speed, and 95 watts;
     HP Pavilion Elite, HPE-500y, 900 GB Free, new in 2011;
     Windows 7, 64 Bit;
     RAM 16 GB, DDR3;
     Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6450;
     Nikon, D200, with Raw Files;
     External Hard Drive for Original Photos, 600 GB Free;
     LR Catalog and Library are on Main Hard Drive;
     Monitor, Sony CPD-200ES, new in 2004.
I am thinking of buying a new monitor tonight mostly so I can do better photo work while enlarging the pictures to do it. I am concerned that while it will help my viewing, it will take more power away, and make my usage of LR5 even worse. Will a new monitor affect my performance? I am looking at HP Monitors with IPS. Is this the best recommended choice for LR and Photoshop CS6?
I think I would like to stay with a 6 core processor since I need to have several items open for other non-Photoshop functions. When running LR5, I had everything else closed. With LR3, I was able to have other things open.
I do not really want to buy a new computer and know that those I have talked with at this point are only guessing after looking for what they thought should fix it. 4 People from Lightroom Support have all thought I should not be having problems with my setup.
I bought one of the best computers 2 years ago. Is it really obsolete already so that I cannot use LR5? Is everyone else buying a new PC every 2 years? I used to go 5-7 years.
Even though I have figured out some of what my PC has, I really do not know technically what I am talking about so am at the mercy of other's help. Are there any solutions that might work short of buying a new computer?
I also have taken 40th anniversary photos for some people and am waiting to give them as a free gift since I am not a professional at all. I am hoping to get through this problem soon so that I can provide some nice memories for them.
I have not gotten any further than trying to adjust 1 picture. I have no comments on uploading speed, since I did that while still in LR3.
Thank you for your time and help.

I'm running LR with no speed issues on an Intel 17-860 quad core with about the same performance as your AMD Phenom II X6 1045T Processor. My system is also an HP, which originally had a single 1TB 7200 HDD. I've since added a second 2TB Black Caviar HDD, which provided no significant difference in LR's performance.
AMD processors do not implement hyper-threading and don't need it. I'd start debug by process of elimination:
1) Disconnect all externally attached USB, FireWire, or other externally connected devices except keyboard, mouse, and your single 1280 x1024 display. This includes all externally attached memory card readers, phones, ipads, etc.
2) Reboot and logon as Administrator.
3) Remove your Internet connection and turn off all Antivirus and firewall programs.
4) Open LR and under Catalog Settings set 'Standard Preview Size' to 1440 (slightly larger than your display width). Under the Metadata tab here make sure 'Automatically Write changes into XMP is NOT checked.
4) Create a 'New Catalog,' Create a new folder and add about 10 raw image file copies to it for testing, and Import it into the new catalog. In the Import module make sure under File Handling 'Render Previews' has 1:1 selected. Wait until all Preview building has completed in the Library module.
Try editing these image files inside the new catalog as you were previously.

No.
Find out what's wrong with you Mac and fix it.
Determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

Adobe Photoshop CC2014 internet connection very slow

Hi,
I'm developing an Adobe Photoshop HTML5 (website) extension. This is working fine in Photoshop CC, but is very slow in CC2014.
Today I've installed an update for Photoshop CC2014 and I was presented with an 'introduction' screen, loaded from the web.
This had the same slowness, indicating my extension is not at fault.
The regular functionality of Photoshop has a normal speed, and I'm working on a recent computer with Win 7 64bit.
I've recorded a video showing how slow it really is (and proof that my internet connection has sufficient speed)
http://videobam.com/gmNun
How can I solve this?

Bridge CC slow/reloading thumbnails every time it opens

I'm suddenly having a ton of problems with Bridge running very slow. I was using CS6 but couldn't get it to batch rename some files I'm working with so I switched over to CC (after enough updates, Bridge CC works on my machine now--it used to just crash on opening). I've had the same folder open in Bridge CC three times today and every time I open it, it has to reload all the thumbnails, which takes forever. There are about 1800 jpgs that are about 11MB each. I didn't used to have this problem with Bridge. Has something changed, or is there a setting I can modify to make this go faster? I have 100% previews unchecked and have the cache size slider set almost to the halfway point. The files I'm working with are on a server, not my local machine.
I'm on a Mac Pro with 8GB of memory, running Mavericks 10.9.5.

UPDATE: created another new project using avanishdivya's suggestions and this time it seems to be working well. Project loaded without long periods looking for media and conforming. Fast forward and back using JKL keys and program monitor shuttle working properly. CTI in timeline is laggy but maybe it always was - I can't remember! Anyway, thanks avanishdivya.
BTW Windows had just done a whole lot of updates before I started this project.

Bridge CC just got very slow

I am a very old and experienced Ps/Br professional, but can't get around this. My Bridge CC (on a very nice and fast quad core Windows 7 PC), at some point became very slow.
Even in the Essentials layout, just going through the thumbnails (already 100% cached, even small files, on fast HDDs always) with the arrow keys is quite slow. Opening Br became slow too.
I purged all the cache, I have no weird background programs running, there's 8GB or fast RAM. Br is now unbearable! Any ideas?

Hi guys,
Same problem here. I noticed like 2 months ago this problem and I hoped will be fixed by some update but no. I`m a hard user of Bridge with Photoshop CC, InDesign CC and sometime Illustrator CC to. At home, I use CS6 suite (Bridge included !!!) on a 7 years old laptop and BRIDGE is 10x times faster than the one running at work (Bridge CC) on a dedicated graphic PC, i5 CPU (4 threads), 16 Gb RAM, 2Gb Video card, 512 SSD ecc.
So, can anyone give us some clue/explanation about what`s going on?
Thx a lot for your time.

AE CS4 on OSX 10.5 Very Slow, Makes System Unresponsive

This is very frustrating, our company has been fighting this problem since we upgraded. I work for a major broadcaster which uses AE for all our motion graphics work. Since upgrading to CS4 we've experienced a team wide decrease in productivity. AE CS4 renders slower than CS3 and in some cases will completely lock up the computer when rendering, making it impossible to do any sort of simple multitasking. Even switching to the Finder and moving around windows is very slow. Let alone try to use Safari or type into a TextEdit document. We've tried everything, but details first.
We're running on last-gen 8-core 3.2GHz Mac Pro's. Each has 10GB of ram and 1TB of HD space (mostly empty). NVidia GeForce 8800 GT video card. Runing AE 9.0.2.42)
We realize that 10GB is not enough ram to use all 8 processors at full speed. So AE is set to use multiprocessing with a max of 3 cores with 2GB minimum with 2 GB in reserve for other applications. All the work we do is with HD footage. All footage is delivered in Apple Prores. Any comp of medium or greater complexity will completely slow down the system. When comparing CS3 rendering time to CS4, CS4 seems about 30-40% slower. When rendering CS4 will also completely lock up the system, switching windows is a complete pain. We've tried turing on and off OpenGL in AE, but no change. We're tried every combination of settings we can think of. Rendering without multiprocessing is even slower and still locks up the system. Also in Activity Monitor is will often show only limited CPU useage (see attached screen). You can see I'm running multiple aeselflink instances, but each one is no where near 100 and the system is still unresponsive!
Outside of rendering CS4 also is much more unresponsive when just working (not rendering). Moving clips around in the composition window and navigating the timeline are sometimes a chore, with lots of 1-2 second delays before taking the action. Or slow screen updates.
Any ideas what is happening here? If is something with the change from 32-bit to 64-bit. Will more ram fix it or is there something else going on? This is becoming a very frustrating situations where we have to completely restart the computer and make sure no other apps are running before even trying to render our anything. CS3 did not seem to have these problems, even with multiprocessing turned on at it's default settings. We like many of the new features in CS4 and are practically required to use it because we get a lot of projects from vendors, but it's proving very slow to work in.

I don't know how complex your comps are, but our are usually pretty complex. Simple comps with just text and 1-2 layers of video usually go pretty quick, but as soon as you ramp up complexity it slows way down. I somehow don't think that our graphics card is the problem. Most of the plugins we use do not see any benefit from OpenGL and we don't use that many 3D layers. In general we haven't seen a big boost in AE performance with OpenGL on or off. All our footage sits on a super fast Terrablock system with at least 300-400mb/s sequential read speeds. Then again it could be that AE just runs poorly on Macs.
Adolfo - we have done some quite extensive benchmarks with all our machines here. Configuring both 10GB and 16GB versions (we have not tried higher memory yet). We tested the same comp in both CS3 and CS$ with various multiprocessor settings. Our test file's complexity was indicative of the kind of projects we do. Around 30 layers, a mix of TGA sequences with alpha, QuickTimes with alpha (animation) and ProRes footage. Many layers with ReelSmart Motion Blur. A Knoll Light Factory lens flare. A mix of layers with various blurs and color correction and some transfer modes.
As you can see CS3 was much, much quicker at rendering the project. In some cases almost twice as fast as CS4. Also, strangely CS3 ran better limited to 4 processors in both the 10GB and 16GB configurations.

[note - This was the optimized setting for CS3 which gave the best performance. Each instance of the program was using 150-180 CPU in the activity monitor so it must be using more that 4 processors with this setting. Each processor used more memory than in the 10GB config.]

CS4 Benchmarks
In general CS4 is about half the speed of an optimized CS3. Going from 10GB to 16GB of memory gained us about 33% performance increase in the most optimized setting (4-6 processors at 2GB+ per processor).
