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.

Late 2016 Macbook, up to date OS and Software

I've done the regular things like turning off OpenCL and changing other performance options... no change.
GIF framerate is sped up 2x

Hi Beth,

Thanks for the information. You are already running 19.0.1 (keep an eye out for another update soon). Also I'm checking into possible causes for a slowdown with the rest of your information and I'll get back with you shortly.

Regards,

Hi Hannah, 

Thanks for the quick reply! Here is what the info says below. At one point at have my preferences set with "Memory used by Photoshop: 85%" with a Firewire Harddrive as scratch disk space (that has a ton of space), but that didn't help. 

For comparison. I am working on my MacBook Pro Late 2015 with 16 GB of RAM, using Photoshop CC 2017 and it is running smoother than my iMac with more power and RAM. It is a huge file, and my MacBook Pro isn't speedy, but it is work-able. The brushes and zoom work. The slow part is the hide/show layers, but it is faster than my iMac. 

Thank you!
Beth

Hi Beth,

Sorry you're seeing slowdowns. If you don't see any updates available in your Creative Cloud desktop app you probably are up to date. To be sure:

Go to Help > System Info and verify that the first line says "20171103.r.190." While that window is up would you copy and paste the contents so I can see the specs on your system? 

Upgrading to High Sierra would not likely help with your slowdowns.

Thanks,
Hannah

Hi Hannah, 

I am on a iMac 5K Retina 27 Inch 2017 computer and I am getting all sorts of slow downs primarily using any tools using a brush, zooming in and out, and hiding and showing layers. I cleared out my preferences too. 

I don't see a 19.0.1 update for Mac, there is only 19.0 - which isn't working. 

Any other solutions? I am still on Sierra, should I upgrade to High Sierra?

Thanks!
Beth

Hi Dominika,

Sorry for the frustration, but there was a fix for this issue. If you're still having this problem it's likely coming from somewhere else. Would you mind starting a new thread? Please include your OS and version of Photoshop. If you want to be extra helpful please paste the contents of Help > System Info into the thread too.

Regards,
Hannah

Hi Tanja,

What OS are you on? What version of Photoshop are you running (Help > System Info). This should have been resolved with a fix in 19.0.1, so if you are still seeing this behavior please tell us what steps you are taking when it happens.

Thanks,
Hannah

Hi Arnold,

That's strange but I'm glad to hear it's working for you now.

I solved my problem.  I found out for some reason my spacing was set to 1000% on my healing brush, and when I returned it to 1 % everything returned to normal operation.
