Hi guys,

I do simple graphic design (flyer at the moment) on illustrator and it keeps lagging and going extremenly slow. At first, I thought it was a problem from my mac but now I also have a PC and it is doing the same problem. It's lagging at EVERY click. I did every step on the ''Improve Illustrator performance'' page and I checked for memory issues. I am so not a itech pro so please help me!

So your Mac has just not enough RAM installed. You might try if an earlier version of Illustrator works better. The PC should work better with 16 GB, but maybe the graphics card is not well equipped. Maybe someone else can tell you how to find out and what to do about it.

Hello @Rafael27534418s7rt,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I hope Michael's suggestions helped resolve the problem. If not, kindly share more details, like the OS/Illustrator version and whether Illustrator behaves this way when working with a particular tool/feature/file, so I can better assist you.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
