Memory management?
LR Classic 10 and now and worse LR Classic11.0 present a problem /bug regarding the cooperation with Windows 10.
My PC has a AMD 24 core cpu and 128GB ram. I import raw files - e.g. more than 150 - and let LR create 1:1 previews simultaneously. During the import and especially while creating the previews LR allocates around 60-80GB ram and the workload of all(!) 24 cores is up to 95%. Up to this point everything is absolutely ok and the import is runnig fast.
When I close LR normally, two variations of the same problem show up. The Windows task manager shows still the running LR process with a cpu workload around 2-5% (this is a lot on this machine) and no(!) disk activity while the large quantity of the allocated memory is reduced in decrements of some hundred MB. This process can take up to some minutes. I am pretty sure, that there are no LR data are saved or written to disk. When there remains no allocated memory, the LR process is closed and only then I can restart LR, that means several minutes after "closing" it. The worst variant of the problem- which shows up more often in LR11 - is, that the process of memory deallocation gets stuck. I have to kill it before it is possible to restart LR.
