5-7 seconds to load the next photo.

Running Lightroom Classic 14.4 on a Mac Studio M1 Ultra machine. Up until the 14.4 update, it was running very smoothly. Now, when making adjustments, it takes 5-7 seconds to load the next photo. Other times, it refuses to change a flag or color label. Even more times, I quit the app and it says it's still writing to XMP metadata, when it's clearly not.

 

Not sure how these major issues weren't caught before release. Pretty frustrating as a pro that my editing time has almost doubled because of this.

 

Tried optimizing the catalog, increasing cache size, to no avail.

And in 14.5, the issue is still not fixed. Sigh.

Hi, we're sorry if you're still experiencing the same behavior. 

Please go to the Help menu in Lightroom Classic, then System Info, and copy the text. You can share the info with us by either pasting it as a reply here or in a text file and sharing the file with us. 


Thanks,

You may have tripped over a bug introduced in 14.4. If you have 'Automatically write changes into XMP' enabled, then this would explain the slow down. Try disabling Automatically write...' to see if it helps.

    That setting is a major part of my workflow. Why hasn't this been fixed yet?!?

    You will have to ask Adobe why it hasn't been fixed yet.
