Question

Photoshop CC and CS6 randomly choppy/hiccupy on new computer, slowing other programs as well

GeForce 1070 GTX

Samsung 960 EVO NVME 1 TB

Latest motherboard BIOS, graphics card drivers, Photoshop updates, and Windows updates

I have been using Photoshop CS6 since 2013 and have never experienced any performance issues on my old computer (i5-750, AMD 7970 GHz, 16 GB RAM Windows 10 64-bit). But I noticed the following issue almost immediately when starting work on my new computer in March:

Seemingly randomly, Photoshop starts getting choppy, which causes other programs to lag as well. The following happens all at once:

- The brush lags; I would draw a line, and it would hiccup while drawing (start, pause, finish line)

- The hand move tool would not function for a second or two, then start functioning again

- A selected tool starts being used, the hiccup happens, and the previously-selected tool becomes selected and executes (for example, using the brush tool, hiccup, then the previously-selected paint bucket tool would execute and fill the screen)

- Lag during zoom in/zoom out, sometimes not zooming at all

- Saving results in the "wait" wheel when it should be instant (saves almost instantly when this lag is not happening)

- General menu lag, choppiness, etc.

- Other open programs become laggy

This happens with any type of file, small or large. Sometimes when this happens, my memory usage spikes upwards of 80%, which it gradually climbs to for no apparent reason (no more files were opened, nothing was done to have the memory gradually go from 40-50% to 80%+). Sometimes I open the task manager and watch the memory usage climb by 1 point every few seconds until it reaches this number, all without doing anything.

But this usually happens when memory usage is within the normal range, with Photoshop using less than 3 GB and my total memory usage hovering around 45%. This lag stops within a few seconds of closing Photoshop. During this lag, my CPU usage does not exceed 5-10% and does not seem to be affected by it (this CPU usage is normal).

I recently bought Photoshop CC to try and see whether the performance issues that I was having with Photoshop CS6 would be mitigated. They have been somewhat in that they are less frequent, but the same issues exist with both versions of Photoshop.

Photoshop is the only program that is doing this. I'm a developer and gamer and have never experienced such behavior with any other program or game on this computer.

What I have tried:

- Closing all other programs and processes, including Crashplan (backup) and Bitdefender

- Repairing Windows 10

- All possible updates for Photoshop and my system

- Running Memtest for 9 hours

- Downclocking my RAM from 2933 MHz to 2133 MHz

- Stress-testing CPU for 12 hours

- Testing my SSD

- Different combinations within Preferences->Performance, including disabling the graphics processor

I do not have any corrupt fonts and only have a handful of non-default fonts installed, which were pulled directly from my old computer. I do not use any font manager. I do not have any third-party plugins. This has nothing to do with rulers, etc. and is not a general performance issue, but random choppiness, memory leaking, and slowdown that I cannot predict.

What can be causing this?

Hey AssembledVS​ did you ever find a solution for this? I have the exact same issue now on my new computer.

(Also a game dev)

Does anyone know what the cause might be?

Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

Again, this is more prominent in Photoshop CS6. It happens with Photoshop CS 2017, but maybe a third of the time that it does with CS6.

I've also tried removing the handful of non-Windows-installed fonts to see if that changes anything, but it does not.

Adobe - can you please give me a response in what else to try? I'm on my 14-day money back period (ends middle of next week) and I'd like to be able to resolve this issue before this time expires. If I cannot resolve this issue, I don't know if I want to keep Photoshop CC 2017, as I purchased it primarily to resolve what I thought was the Photoshop CS6 issue.

You not dealing with Adobe directly here these are user forums.  Most here are only Adobe Photoshop users.  Not Adobe employees.

IMO there are many issues in CC 2017 that is why I use CC 2014.   CS6 should work quite well.  You need to deal with each version of Photoshop separately. CC 2017 and CS6 are different versions of Photoshop.

Supply pertinent information for quicker answers

  • The more information you supply about your situation, the better equipped other community members will be to answer. Consider including the following in your question:
  • Adobe product and version number
  • Operating system and version number
  • The full text of any error message(s)
  • What you were doing when the problem occurred
  • Screenshots of the problem
  • Computer hardware, such as CPU; GPU; amount of RAM; etc.

If perpetual CS6 use to work well  for you you may be  best off uninstall all Of Adobe's software.  Use Adobe cleaner to make sure all traces are off.  Then install and update perpetual CS6.

Thanks for this.

I uninstalled Photoshop CS6, CC 2017, Creative Cloud, and all other Adobe products. Then I ran the Adobe Cleaner, twice for good measure, including the Creative Cloud installer cleaner. Finally, I cleaned the registry with CCleaner. Restarted several times and reinstalled Photoshop CS6 Extended standalone and checked for updates and installed them (version 13.0.1.3).

But the same issue persists.

I'm running out of ideas about what the cause may be.

EDIT: Just to clarify, Photoshop CS6 only worked well on my previous computer. This stared as soon as I installed CS6 on this new computer and it also happens, though far less often, with Photoshop CC 2017. It never happened before on my previous computer.

Post you CS6 system info.   If you had CS6 perpetual installed then install he creative cloud the creative cloud may have tried to update your Perpetual CS6 version 13.0.1.3 to subscription CS6 Extended version 13.1.2.   The creative cloud tried to do the on my machine the update failed and CS6 was broken and showed it was version 13.0.    I had to install cs6 on top of the broken install to back level it to a CS6 version 13.0 to fix the broken installation.  Once CS6 version 13.0 was in good shape I was able to update it to CS6 version 13.1.2.   There have been many reported problem with CC 2017 some other users not all are having performance problems also.

Thanks.

I don't think that's what happened, though. I first installed CS6 (I have the extended version) and the update. It was only a week or two after I noticed that CS6 started behaving this way that I installed a trial of Photoshop CC and Creative Cloud. I then uninstalled it, and two weeks later, purchased the license (trying it out for 14 days before I make a decision).

This is my CS6 version info:

Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1.3 20131024.r.34 2013/10/24:21:00:00) x64

I do not see an update for 13.1.2; the newest update on the Adobe site is the one that I have: http://supportdownloads.adobe.com/product.jsp?product=39&platform=Windows

Where can I get this 13.1.2 version?

EDIT: I should also add that I tried uninstalling, cleaning, and reinstalling CS6 several times but that the problem remains. I also don't think that this issue is specific to CS6 and that CC simply doesn't work for some people, as I'm getting the same issue on both versions. At this point, I don't care what version I can get to working properly. I just want to continue my work as I did on my previous computer.

If you uninstall CS6 then use the creative cloud desktop application to install previous versions it should install CS6 version 13.1.2.  IMO CS6 13.0.1.3  would include 13.0.1.2 if it existed.  If you have Perpetual CS6 extended Version 13.0.1.3 IMO it has an advantage over the subscription version 13.1.2.  For you can install the optional CS5 plug-ins Web Photo gallery plug-in and Picture Package plug-in the will not work in the subscription CS6 version 13.1.2
