System: Macbook Pro 16in 2021 (M1 Max, 32g ram, Sonoma 14.3)
Photoshop 25.4 and 25.3.1
My files are rendering glitchy since I updated my Photoshop (I was previously using 2023 without any issues). Now I'll get random artifacts on my artboard, double images, and smart objects just not displaying at times. Sometimes scrolling will sort of "reset" how my file looks, but since updating I just can't get some files to display properly at all. I work with a lot of bigger files with many smart objects embedded in them and it's frustrating that this is a problem now. I tried going a version down from 25.4, but the problem still persisted in 25.3.1. I even tried turning off multithreading in the performance settings and it's still acting up. I haven't tried downgrading back to 2023 yet, but the fact that this is happening is such a bummer. Any ideas on what could be causing this? Thanks so much in advance.
Edit: I downgraded my photoshop to 24.7.2 and these rendering issues went away. I'm still wondering how to handle the performance in newer versions though.
