In most recent 2018 update, healing and spot healing brush have become much less responsive, sometimes taking multiple seconds after completion of stroke to affect the image.

I've done the regular things like turning off OpenCL and changing other performance options... no change.

Have you tried bringing the slider to 0 and turning it off in the brush panel?

Just to add to this. Also having this lag problem BUT only with the legacy healing brush enabled. Without legacy its working just fine, however I dont like working with that brush.

Same Issue here with the healing brushes (Windows10, 16GB RAM, i7). Using spot healing brush it lags over 5 spots behind. It looks like it is working better for a short period of time after restarting Photoshop. The memory usage is going fast past the 6.5GB with only one 36MP file on 16 bits and only one empty layer for healing ( file size on the lower left is about 250MB.

Turn off smoothing and you should be good. Seemed to work for a lot of people now.
