P: MacBook Pro Apple M2 Max Laggy Liquify

That's leterally what I feel. It's so frustrating, Photoshop has become a ready-made software for beginners but it's not longer a reilable software for professionals.. I will skip in Capture One if they don't fix all the Adobe issues. 

yes, but it turns off the face features

have you tried holding Option when opening liquify? this (while still very annoying) does seem to fix my lagging issue. It's at least useable now

Yeah, this really sucks... The AI generator is cool but some of us generate our own stuff and need to work for a living. 

It's unbelievable that after months Adobe doesn't fix the M2 compatibility. My M1 Pro was a lot faster than this and I had half the RAM. Why invest in a better Mac when it's going to be limited?

I'm getting really irate now. This needs to be fixed ASAP!

Please! New Beta update, incredible new tools but the good old liquify is still almost unusable on a MacBook Pro M2... it is so laggy, specially when using a Wacom Intuos Pro as input device.

Photoshop 24.5 laggy still

You can download the new version...

@fastfingers it's happening to me consistantly with just the MBP 16" M2 Display

Coming back to this thread as I now have experienced the liquify lag on M2 Max, I didn't have it before.

It's something triggered/attentuated by the display used - when I work on my Eizo CS2740 (a HiDPI display) connected via USB3, and secondary HD monitor via HDMI, it doesn't happen (Macbook built in display open or closed, doesn't matter).

When I disconnect the USB3 monitor, keep only a HD monitor via HDMI only, then the famous lag happens. I haven't tried the Macbook display only.

I've tried the various methods mentioned in this thread, the lag sometimes disappears irregularly, but overall it's still there and far less smooth than PS2022. Now I have to continue using PS2022 until the bug is completely fixed.
