Photoshop 21.0.1 hangs when using brushes after latest upgrade

Just upgraded to PS 21.0.1 (today) and I am testing the included Kyle's impresionist brushes and when using it it just spins and never ends. the GPU shows activity btu it never returns the control. I forced close the PS and restarted again , tried the same and again it hanged. 

 

I was testign in particular the  175,173,150 Kyle's paintbox impressionist canvas. 

 

I beleive it happens whne using the Pet tablet  (I use the large wacom tablet intuos pro pth-660). When using the mouse there is no laging. When using the pen the lags is pretty noticeable. It was working ok before the upgrade.

Thanks! the Intuos driver is up to date. 

 

I set the "Legacy compositing" and it is now working 

 

Thanks!

Hi there,

As the brushes are lagging only when you're using the tablet pen, could you try updating the tablet drivers and see if it helps?

You may also try enabling "Legacy compositing" located in Photoshop's Preferences > Performance, then relaunch Photoshop and let us know if it helps.

Regards,
Sahil
