Bridge v9

[paul190453]

Hi all,

Just updated bridge to the latest version (9). It seems to be slower than the previous versions...ie I select images and open them in camera raw (latest version), but they takes 4-5 seconds to load (spinning wheel whilst waiting for images to load into ACR) (same if I only select one image). Previous version was much faster to load images into ACR.

Win 7, intel i7, 16GB ram, 60GB SSD+2TB HDD. I've increased photoshop's ram to 80%...no difference. Anyone else noticed a similar issue?.

Cheers.

Hi Sahil,

Thank you for the reply. I am not having any issues with Photoshop (have already tried the suggestions on your link), The issue is with Bridge. It is slower to open images in camera raw 11 (around 5 seconds for a single image...up to 20 seconds for 20-30). Once in camera raw all is good...acr works fine. It seems the only issue is Bridge is slower to open and open raw files in acr.

Cheers,

Paul

It seems that the issue with Bridge is well known among users from what I've read on various forums. Is adobe planning on an update to address this issue, as well as the issues discussed here:
