Bridge 15 beta- good performance

[Lumigraphics]

I'm critical of the stability and performance of recent Bridge releases, but I also want to report when it works correctly.

Today, I had to export 17,000+ PSD files to JPEG. I've been testing Bridge 15 beta and although it still is not suited for production, this particular task went well.

I exported in two batches, one ~3700 files and the second ~13,500 files. The export went off with no crashes, stutters, memory leaks, CPU spikes, errors, or other problems. Performance was good. This is what I'd love to see with the entire application.

But then, of course, trying to do anything with the folder of exported images was impossible. Every action was glacial, I had to select menu items several times before they worked, scrolling was impossible, Bridge 15 was just unusable and I had to go back to Bridge 12. :sigh: Baby steps. Barely.
