Lagging when zooming and dragging screen

In the last couple weeks Illustrator has been lagging alot when I try and zoom in/out as well as when move around the document. At first I thought it was because of the complexity of my files but it does the same thing and brand new empty documents. 
Ive tried all the advice lised on adobe's Improve Illustrator performance on macOS page. And nothings helpec.
The rest of my CC applications work just fine. 
I don't think it has anything to do with my computer. It's a brand new mac book pro with 32 GB of RAM.

Any ideas?

Hi there,

 

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing version of the OS & Illustrator?

I'd request disabling GPU Performance under Preferences > Performance & see if it helps.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Regards,

Ashutosh

What helped me was to:

  1. Disable GPU Performance
  2. Restart Illustrator
  3. Enable GPU Performance again
