P: Slow UI when using Mac and Custom Display Profile

I have the exact same problem it is unworkable, I do not want to hassle with reverting back to 9.4. Catalog is too big to export and then import from. We just need adobe to fix this bug quickly. It is impossible to get any work done in a timely manner!

Big Sur running lightroom 10.1

stuck like this until I shut it down- super frustrating!

iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)

4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7

32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2 GB

Hi, 

Right after install, I am having issues with extremely slow editing, scrolling through photos, adding or applying changes to images.

The laptop was new and had 16 GB but now it is upgraded to:

Device name DESKTOP-C69QGDA
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10875H CPU @ 2.30GHz   2.30 GHz
Installed RAM 64.0 GB (63.9 GB usable)
Device ID 455D2FFB-86F5-4D5D-9408-D46ACF0BF1E9
Product ID 00325-81810-72643-AAOEM
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

I can no understand what is causing the problem and making the lightroom almost unusable?

Can you look into issue please, if this is not improved i will ask for refund as free software does 10x faster job in editing pictures from my SONY a7ii which is pretty old and images are tiny in size.

Thanks

The 1st team is working on the massive conversion to the new Apple hardware and software. That's a mammoth project. General maintenance and support for old Apple hardware / software is on the 2nd team and a bunch of new hires / contractors. Anybody who's ever worked in a large development organization can tell you that this is how it works. Fact of life folks, we are just going to have to suffer through it. 

That's not likely, IMO. There is a lot of very advanced skill required to develop an application like Lightroom. This skill is very hard to come by in the marketplace, so Adobe is highly unlikely to let it go. I think the case is quite the opposite: there simply may be too many fires burning (e.g. Apple M1 silicon support) and too few top-tier developers going around within the Lr-Team to extinguish them all. You might be surprised by how small the core development teams of major and well-known applications are...

I wouldn't bet on that and I hope it's not the case.

Of course the other reason might be that they've optimised revenue by reducing costs, i.e. fired all the (expensive) competent programmers and replaced them with offshore bodyshops. 

And nobody has the first clue how to fix it.

Hi,

thanks a lot for your reply. I donot have 10.1 installed anymore but will give your suggestion a try, soon. I never had a single problem with any version of LR before 10.1 and always had GPU-acceleration enabled.

I will report back here.

Edit: Just had a look at your website, I really like your work.

Yes that should work as long as the edits/manipulations are not saved in the 9.4 library. 

OK, thanks @DYP.
My issue is that I figured out too late about the issue we all have, and I'm working with 10.0.0 since 3 months. Now, this problem pisses me off too much, and I just want to have a 9.4 installed on the same system, to manipulated ongoing images, and then load them to my big 10.0.0 lib.
As a workaround, it should work
