Permanent lag after switching to outline mode in Illustrator 25.3 on Windows 10

After the latest update to 25.3, when I open a file the inteface is fine, zooming in and out is quick. But as soon as I switch for the first time to outline mode, it starts lagging and when I go back to regular view, it's worse. Significant lag in panning and zooming, up to 1/3 - 1/2 second delay from rolling the scroll wheel to zooming happening. This is permanent until I close the file and reopen it. It has happened on all files I have opened.

Hi Nathan,

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would it be possible for you to try resetting the preferences of the app once & see if it changes the behavior? You may also try toggling the GPU Performance under Preferences > Performance and see if it makes a difference. If it doesn't, we'd appreciate if you can share a small video of your workflow. This will help us assist you accordingly.

Regards,

Ashutosh

Same thing in Illustrator 27.2 (2023) in Windows 10
It's a well specced machine with a 3080 and it's running like trash after briefly switching to outline mode.

Hi all, thanks for the follow up.

I deleted the preferences file, and it didn't make any difference at the time but it seems that the issue is no longer present, in the original file or others. I haven't made any other changes.

Regardless, the problem is no longer presenting, so I will consider it closed.

On my Mac Mini running Big Sur, I have this EXACT problem too...........resetting prefs, etc. makes NO difference.

Strikingly, my colleague also has this issue on his Mac running the same specs.....

So far, no response from Adobe.
