Sorry, Bill. I am getting a little upset too. I had posted the issue also and for one day I thought it had gone by changing resolution of the display. For any unknown reason the temporary performance boost disappeared again and I am struggling with the same performance issues again. But - and I can imagine others feel in a similar way - at some point in time you just get bored and tired and stop complaining, because - and I would love to see a change in communication from Adobe - you don't get the feeling that Adobe is really listening. An update here and there that the bug is being worked on, or questions back to the community or request for help - that is missing. I have a MBP16 and latest LR and Big Sure - nothing outdated. Also, I have once followed all steps for a different bug - to test and reinstall and do this and that - we hear the same advises over and over again for all kinds of problems, but if you read the posts you realize that others tried this as well without success. Pushing customers to reinstall, reconfigure keeps them busy for a while or at some point in time they stop complaining, maybe stop posting issued and after a while they simply may have gone to competition.
I loved LR since the very first days and I am sure most users do like the concept and interface. Still, many don't request tons of new features and miss performance of older versions running faster on older hardware.
I remember the day where Adobe product management rolled back after some not thought-through changes in the import interface after lots of users complained. Some recognition of customers and maybe some more update regarding status of bug fixing in case of issues which professional photographs drive mad - luckily I do not depend on LR for my work, but if would, I would be mad as well. So I will keep fingers crossed and hope we get this issue fixed soon.
I recognise the endless efforts of Adobe reps bridging customers and product management , it is a tough situation sometimes and I thank them all for doing their best in bringing our voices into the teams. I know how difficult it can be working in a company dealing with similar sized software projects.
