P: Quick Develop VERY slow on my system (6 sec vs 1 sec in LR 5.7)

Yeah, it's kind of a joke to find that the two major new features (face recognition and GPU acceleration) both have to be disabled to make LRCC usable at all.

It would be funny if it wasn't such a drag.

Disabling GPU helped with the keywords coming up. That's much faster now, but God forbid I hit the "O" key (facial recognition). That brings everything to a grinding halt. I upgraded to 6.0 primarily because of the facial recognition (I tag EVERY photo with who's in it). I have > 227,000 photos in my library, so, for me, this was a desirable feature. Here's hoping it gets MUCH better in the next point release.

Just to chime in here, I'm finding CC very sluggish

6 core MacPro, 24G ram, and SSD's throughout

Much slower than 5.7.1, I frequently get the spinning colourful wheel of death (which is does recover from but didn't get it with LR5)

Haven't seen much point in upgrading to CC so far, I hope Adobe issues some serious updates shortly

Well, I hope adobe is working on a fix for this. Haven't heard much from employees on this thread.

The slowness of generating previews is absolutely horrible. In Print module, it's 5-10 seconds to resolve the image. I can't even use slideshow at all, as the image doesn't resolve before it moves on to the next image.

I have turned GPU off, and am using a lower resolution preview setting. (I'm on a 27" imac).

I appreciate the difficulty of putting out a new sw release. But LR5 was working fine. The number of problems introduced with LRCC is incredibly frustrating.

Victoria, yes, I understand. Thanks for all your work.
It ain't easy putting out a new release of software so complicated and sophisticated. Thanks for your efforts with this software to make our jobs "easier" (different) ;).
But for now, I'll have to step back while y'all develop, and I try to get my work done.

Great to hear you were sensible David! Of course, they'll be busy trying to reproduce these problems, but lot of these issues will be specific to users systems and catalogs. There won't be a single wholesale fix, because that would have been found before release. There's lots of different elements involved here, so it's all about detective work at this stage. That's why specifics from users are so important at the moment.

For those who upgraded their working catalogs, optimizing the catalog, pausing sync, pausing face recognition, checking preview size in catalog settings, checking hard drive space especially on the boot driver, updating the graphics card driver and trying with and without the GPU preference are well worth a try.

Thanks, Victoria. Yes, for those who did not install v6 as a parallel trial "beta", that would be important.
Nevertheless, it seems to me that Adobe would test an unoptimized catalog vs a clean test catalog, and either respond that Adobe is working on fixing it, or that Richard should optimize his catalog because Adobe found in their testing that re-optimizing the catalog makes a big difference.
We have lots of feedback from customers, and almost none from Adobe. Not very equitable or forthright on Adobe's part.

There are some performance issues they're working on, but at this stage we have no way of knowing whether you're seeing the same issue or something different. Of course you're welcome to wait and see whether the fixes in the next dot release solve the problems you're having, but since there's not an easy downgrade option, it may be worth your time to try a couple of troubleshooting steps. Up to you.

Adobe now well knows of this slowness issue in LR 6. It is therefore up to Adobe (not the customers) to do the appropriate troubleshooting and development.

Have you optimized the catalog lately? Do you see the same issues with a clean test catalog?
