P: Slow UI when using Mac and Custom Display Profile

Hello,

 

Since upgrading to Lightroom Classic v10.0, all UI-related functionality is painfully slow. All editing functions are working correctly and quickly but scrolling through the catalogue or even scrolling a side panel is taking many long seconds to refresh. Unreasonably long.

 

Disabling GPU Accellaration has no affect on my Lightroom's performance.

 

macOS Mojave 10.14.6

Mac Pro (Late 2013)

3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5

32 GB 1866 MHz DDR3

AMD FirePro D700 6 GB

@andrew_rodney what we do have here are dozens of Mac users who have this problem... and that's only those few of them who are willing to sign on to this forum and dive in here, so even that is probably one a small fraction of actually affected users.

You do not need to know the internal processes of Adobe to just see that V10 should not have been released and that QA is 0.

If you can prove the opposite, I send you 12 bottles of (French) Champagne!

If it wasn't for you Carlos, this would be a boring site.

@photostudiotnk 

Thanks for confirming you know nothing about or have experience with Adobe software testing or development. 

I do (as a software developer too).

With this particular problem, it either means that QA for LrC is not done in a color managed environment, or someone said "this performance is fine".

No, that isn't what it means. My environment is totally color managed and no beta was problematic for me or I would have reported it. This is a very odd and difficult bug to find and fix and does not affect all users and in fact, most if not all beta testers.

Or you believe Adobe deliberately released a known bug? Is so, prove it.

Is that OK for you? DO you need proofs? My name? Birth date? 

It is really the place to discuss this kind of things?

Adobe has a poor QA. End of story. And whatever the reasons, releasing V10 was a pure stupidity.

Mac users: please ignore the usual Apple-bashing from some Windows owners. Yes, they often don't know what they are talking about, but it's not worthwhile arguing with them. End of line.

So why even release version 10 at this point. 

Well many of us have no problems. So there are those users of v10.

The Mac side of the development team is focused on the new Apple hardware and software, we are seeing what we should expect. For the current LRC software on the Mac, they are using 2nd tier developers and contractors who know nothing about Lightroom, they are trainees. 

And you know what the team is doing based on what experience with the Adobe team?
