I have never had an issue with ACR before.18.3 freezing saying not responding saving files took twenty minutes instead of seconds everything was super laging, when I disabled the GPU acceleration it improved I see on the other pages I am not alone I'm using the most up to date windows, Nvidia drivers ETC: I have a 7950x, 5090, 64GB and NVME drives. Please fix as soon as possible or at least give a link to the previous version which I had no issues with.

Update following the instructions in this link:

    After the update ACR has a massive memory leak on the graphics card. When working on a picture in ACR the app gets slower after a few minutes and if you open the Windows Task Manager the memory on the graphics card (24Gb RTX 4090) is completely filled up and also some shared memory is used.

    Please fix this as soon as possible!

    Thank you.
