Bridge 2019 very very slow

I'm struggling with the the latest version of Bridge CC2019 - 9.0.1.216. It is so very slow, just simply rotating an image is an unpleasant clunky slow process. I found Photoshop CC2019 unusable and have reinstalled and gone back to using CC2018 while things are sorted like the infuriating pop up window every time you go to the next image. I cleared the cache's in Bridge more than once. The thumbnails take time to load and more time for the resolution to arrive. I'm using a Mac Pro OS on Mojave 10.14.1 and really regretting downloading CC2019 and can not see a 2018 version of Bridge to reinstall - any ideas?

So here we are over a year later and Bridge is still useless. It runs very slowly and 4 out of 5 times refuses to open files on my hard drive that PS and LR have no problem with.

I can't count how many times I have seen "not reponding" and sent a description of the circumstances. Where does that information go to, the garbage can?

What gives ADOBE? are you going to fix this program or not?

Similar trouble. I'm re-naming files and using the Filters panel--if I want to see today's files I click the box and wait 10 seconds to see a checkmark. None appears, so maybe I missed the box and click again. Finally the check appears--and then dissappears. So I click AGAIN and wait.

Etc.

Nope--no Acronis. I use Time Machine is all...

I have had the same issues and rolled back to 2018 version. All back to normal speeds with 2018.

I'm just getting rid of this iMac, I believe half the problem is that this machine just can't really do much of anything well. Like even copying a file. Wish I'd been born 50 years earlier.

Yes, the latest version is unusable. I have more than sufficient specs on the imac and making any edits has 10 second delay, which didn't happen with the previous version. Needs a fix ASAP!!

Updated today and it is nearly un-usable. 30 seconds to rate an image via a keyboard command? If this is the new normal then I'm never going to get any work done.

Oh good to hear I thought I was going crazy with how slow bridge was being. I guess I'll down grade to 2018, really hope this gets fixed soon.

Bridge CC2019 was generally running slow and feeling pretty clunky. Fast reviewing of images both RAW & jpeg in slideshow are too slow to use and rotation was also delayed. Files are on an external hard drive (Lacie).

I am using a Mac Pro OS Mojave

I have Reinstalled Bridge Version 8.1.0.383 and all my issues have now gone
