P: Slow performance on Xeon CPUs

I noticed that LR clone and brush tool on my XEON E5-1650 0 3.20GHz (Attention: E5-1650 0 and not E5-1650 v4) can not stress my CPU and after x minutes of working LR slow down, until I have to restart it.

Please see the full diskussion with the problem here: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2210245 (test with different Lightroom versions, confrontation with a weak laptop, that works fine, tests wit other graphic grafic card, test with other bios settings etc. No results. Only restart LR or minor display resolution helps.)

Can anyone with an XEON E5-1650 0 3.2Ghz confirm this?

I am working on hundreds of photos nad it's still the same. I tried to use graphic card and turn it off and nothing special happened. After a few minutes working I have to wait a few seconds to use some tools. Changing exposure is not instant.

Glad to hear it! I've got an event to shoot today so I will be able to put the new update through the paces. Will report back my results

The new update to Adobe Lightroom CC (2015.8) is a big improvement. My video card (Invidia 1070) with the latest driver is now recognized as working in LR and things are loading better, adjustment brushes are quicker (not yet snappy, but better by a fair margin) and exports are now faster.

Well it looks like Lr CC 2015.8 just released that has various bug fixes as well as fixed more memory leaks. I am curious to see if our issues got resolved. I will download it tonight to see if everything is working as expected

Really? Cool. I will try to send it them. There is a small difference but it's noticable (for pixel peeper 🙂
In Capture One it looks like compression noise and in Lightroom it is more like film grain and more natural.

Thank you for the advice.

I can't believe C1 noise is worse then lightroom, I have the opposite issue, but it is depending on the camera specific raw file.
I suggest you open a support ticket with capture 1 and show them the 2 results c1 vs lightroom, they will be very quick to reply. 1-3 days normally.

Yes, the whole thing is extremely frustrating.

My workarounds are:
A) Re-start Lightroom every 5 min
B) Edit with lightroom mobile
Both, a catastrophy when you have to edit many photos 😞

After a couple of months having problem with Lightroom I got to this site. I tried everything, read milions comments and topics on forums and I solved nothing with the performance issues.
I edit hundreds or thousands of pictures from every shooting and lightroom became to be pain in the ass processing the photos.

I tried different sw to process raw. Capture one 10 is really really fast, has the quality but the noise and image quality what lightroom has is the best for my eyes.

I hope that Adobe will update LIghtroom with all the performance issues fixed soon. It is a huge Adobe fail. Huge one!
