New v9.2 Performance Issues: screen blacks out in Develop
[ There is an older thread that is similar, but it's not the same and it's really stale ]
Symptons while working in Develop panel:
- Frequent hangs
- Main screen blacks out
- Windows titlebar says "Lightroom (Not Responding).
- When it returns from hang, sometimes an edit streaks across screen (as if it detected a mouse movement from X to Y with button down, which did not occur).
- Second monitor goes away
- Even when not hung, all LR actions are very slow to react. Screen draws on 2nd monitor from something done in development panel take a long time to show up.
This is all a production killing, total work-stoppage environment. (Please see system specs at the bottom.)
Resolutions attempted (that did not fix the issue):
- Restart LR between attempts /pref-changes, rebooted computer several times
- Turn off GPU processing (this might have slightly reduced the issues, but not a resolution), turned it back on -- no joy.
- Purged ACR cache (though it was only using ~25% of 200GB)
- Purged Video cache
This is all on a system that has not changed in hardware and has been working for a long time just fine.
The only thing I can think of that I have been doing, which might contribute to the issue, is:
- I've been doing large exports, like 300-1000 file exports to 16-bit 8k TIFFs (over 200MB each)
- I recently re-started using my WACOM tablet, but have since unplugged it to see if it was a contributing factor (it doesn't seem to have been).
- I am writing to a large hard drive enclosure and have been for awhile (usb 3.1), but since both files and catalog are on that drive, I'm going to test it. Windows reports it's fine, but I'll still test it for throughput speed. Film at 11.
System Specs:
- Win10 Pro Workstation 64bit, 64GB memory, I7-8700 CPU (3.20GHz), NVMe SSD boot, NVMe SSD scratch, tons of free drive space all around, dual 4K monitors, all Adobe components updated (including ACR and DNG convertor).
