I use Adobe Illustrator 2022 on Macbook Pro 16" 2019, 32 GB RAM, 2,3 GHz MacOS Monterey Illustrator just suddenly getting slow! I can not work on that. I tried to restart and even reinstall illustrator but to no avail!
Got the same slowness. (even on MAC Pro 32 core, SSSD, 128 RAMS etc.) Every adobe app gets incredible slow. And yes the Activitmonitor does give any cleu what is slowing down the machine.
But for the last year, every Adobe update is much slower then before. And when apple updates, adobe gets another slowness boost.
To me it is not workable anymore. Illustror almost comes to a full stop! Realy thinking about gettin g windows machines with Corel Draw or something.
Sorry to hear about this experience. I would request you to share a few more details like:
The exact version of the OS and Illustrator
Since when are you facing this problem?
Is this happening after performing a specific action (save/copy/print/export etc.) or using a particular feature/tool/effects?
Have any recent changes been made to your computer (OS Update/ Antivirus/ Plug-Ins)?
Is it acting this way with some specific files? If yes, kindly share the link to download the file here or via DM.
Have you tried resetting Illustrator's preferences? Disclaimer: Please note that resetting preferences will remove all the custom settings, and Illustrator will launch with default settings. You can also take a backup of the folders in case you want to. Location is mentioned in the article.
