Hello all, I'm running the latest Brisge/camera raw/photoshop updates available today (9/16/2024) and I have found that when I have open 15-20 images to process, after working for a few minutes I find things get slow (crop and other adjustments) start getting laggy.
Files are DNG converted Sony A7rIV (not lossy compressed)
PC is running Windows 11 (latest updates)
NVME SSD's
Ryzen 7 7700x
64g ram
Radeon RX6600 8gig (latest drivers)
No other apps running (not even photoshop at the time)
Usually things work just fine but this happens on occasion. I don't see Bridge/Camera Raw using more than 35% cpu. CPU is not running hot and throttling down. I'm trying to figure out what I can do to minimize the slow down. I can load less images at a time but in the past I haven't really seen this even with more raw images open for processing in Camera Raw.
Any Ideas or similar experiences?

Is your GPU properly recognized in Photoshop's Help/System Information?
Is your display adapter properly displayed in Windows Device Manager?

Yes to both 🙂

Generally, it's the complexity of the settings used to edit the photos that can cause interactive edits to become slower, and not the number of photos you have open in Camera Raw's filmstrip or how just how long Camera Raw or Bridge are running. If you're putting a lot of work into individual photos: adding Masks, remove spots, using Upright, adding other effects, etc. Camera Raw has to do more work to reneder each pixel than it does when you start off with the default settings for your raw files. Also, if you are saving some photos to disk in the background while editing other photos, that might impact interactive performance temporarily, however, Camera Raw does assign interactive work higher priority than background saves.
A couple things to check--are you getting low on disk space when the lagginess happens? Is Camera Raw using GPU acceleration? Please check out the roubleshooting guide here: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/acr-gpu-faq.html#troubleshoot).
It can help others trying to troubleshoot problems if you share more technical details about your computer and the exact version of Camera you are using. The troubleshooting guide includes instructions about how to capture more detailed logs.
Thanks,

This makes sense. In some cases I am adding masks and doing a few spot removals. I need to be cognizant of these things the next time I work on a batch of images. I usually do heavy lifting in Photoshop but when I feel I can do things in Camera Raw, I will do some more specific adjustments.
