Anyone aware of a feature request for more usable psbs? They slow bridge to a crawl, you cant see what they are. more and more of my files have to be psbs as pixel dimensions and bit depth rises. Surely it would be reasonably trivial to embed a jpeg at the start of a psb, for bridge to read? (in fact why this isn't so in all phtooshop files is a mystery). Its not like bridge is made by a different company. you control the file format and the reader.

Also it's been like this for ever. Really i need adobe to start thinking about some of these usability issues that we've been putting up with literally for decades.

Is your question that you don't get PSB thumbnails, or that Bridge is generally slow?

If the former, you set this in Bridge Preferences:

You can see psb thumbnails and have bridge slow to a crawl, or you can elect to not create thumbnails for 8gb files, and then not see what the file is.

It is, as renton might say, a shite state of affairs.

Ah, Trainspotting, great film. Never read the book

I can't say I've experienced any problems with Bridge and big PSB's, thumbnails or not. I have a number of files in the 3-8 GB range, which is why I (arbitrarily) set 8 in Bridge. Everything seems snappy, fine and dandy here.

Have you tried purging the cache? You can even go into your user account and delete the entire folder to be sure. It'll rebuild.
