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?

    10.1 was just released.  Can anyone on the Adobe side tell us if it addresses anything on this thread?  Should be still be using the config.lua patch with the new update?

    Agreed Mihael, this is a joke.

    I second that. I had better performance for a couple of days, then trouble again. There is a difference: Before throttling the CPU threads, the Lightroom made my whole computer sluggish, i.e. typical memory leak. Now, with the config.lua or a similar effect done with a bat-file (start /affinity F cmd.exe /c "c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom\lightroom.exe" ), the computer remains stable, but Lightroom crashes frequently, especially when switching between library and develop module. Not yet able to point to what exactly makes it crash. I've noticed earlier that the metadata dialog (which reads from the sql-lite) tends to slow everything dowm when batch editing +100 images. My catalog has some 200.000 images, majority are dng-files. For what it's worth, the throttling of the cpu definitely seems to have isolated the problem to be with the Lightroom.

    Haha, that's normal for Lr... U do this, it's faster for a day, than same again. You do that, it's faster for a day, than same again. You "this" again and "that" again... switch GPU on, Switch GPU off,  make smart previews, make 1:1 previews... sneeze, dance a rain-calling dance... everything helps for that moment, but next day (or just hour), it is just same again. 

    We are making biggest donkeys out of ourselves chasing our tail with debugging this, since it is unsolvable, until developers will not make proper (huge) changes from their side.

    After importing 600+ photos and then the development module gets slower. But still not the "not responding". I restarted and it gets faster again, but not as fast as when I just put the Config.lua file. Next day, everything okay again, but becomes slow again but workeble. On a scale from a 100%, I was at 100% with the config.lua just in place, now I at 80/85%. So it's not completly fixed

    Simon -- Can you provide any updates on the status of this thread?  I notice that its not "acknowledged", or "in progress".  Has this problem of performance decay been reproduced by Adobe, or is there still a question as to whether its a Lightroom issue?

    that's great. Do you find that after working in the development module for few minutes the performance becomes slower and you have to restart to get it back up to speed?

    Today went crazy on a photo with all things LR has to offer on ajusting a photo. The Config.lua allready installed. It was better, didn't get the "LR not responding" and the processor never went to 100% on al cores. But still the brush and the gragradueerd filter laked behind. Then I set the value of Develop.AdjustMaximumThreadCount to 0.5 and went crazy againg. Then LR went crazy! I've never seen it so fast!!! Processor load was between very low and 90%, when I paused it droped in an instand to below 10%. If I wanted to make panoramas with a lot of photos I had always time for a coffee, now made several panos. Just with one (10 photos) I got one moment the "not responding" but after a second or 5 LR continued. It seems to me it now also made better use of the 24Gb memory. Normaly it uses around 12 Gb, now with the panos it went up to 19Gb.  

    So for me it seems okay at this moment 🙂

    Didn't know about those feedbacks threads a few hours ago.
    Just to add my experience about that config.lua on my 6 years old workstation  ( see below )
    The perf boost on 2015.10 seems reel here, I can't believe my eyes, I'll be back in some days to confirm that but it looks very very promising. 

    Btw, don't think what I didn't say : it looks better, but lightroom still is too slow 🙂
    My hardware do not help I guess 🙂
