Photoshop suddendly lagging and slow?
Hi everyone!
Recently Photoshop is being super laggy for me, especially when I zoom in and out and when I try to draw (brush tool). And I have no idea why.
It can't be the file size, because even though I am working on pretty big files, it could handle bigger files mere days before without problem.
I've tried optimizing performance, reducing my History States from 50 to 20, giving it more than Memory Usage than the range suggests for ideal performance (80%), and increasing cache levels (first to 6 now to 8).
But nothing's making a difference. I've restarted the programm, restarted the computer, purged the cache...mI'm at my wits end and I can't continue working before fixing this extreme lag.
I'm working on a iMac (Big Sur), with Adobe Photoshop 2021. Yes I know it's an outdated version but it's worked perfectly fine up until 2 days ago so I refuse to believe that's the issue.
Any help is appreciated!
