Any updates of fixes to the current memory leak issue?

Report · Sep 30, 2024

I've seen this be reported on a handful of times over the last week or so but there hasn't been any real response from Adobe with the only "fix" I've seen is to switch to windows and buy a new GPU.

It's slowing my workflow to a halt and have so much to get done with no fix in sight. I've tried everything from downgrading versions, turning off GPU acceleration, optimising catalog, clearing caches, turning off syncing, using smart previews but nothing seems to work.

I have about 10 minutes of editing before it starts to slow to unusable levels and I have to reboot my MacBook.

I'm using an M1 Pro any only editing Canon 5d mk4 files so nothing even too intense and it seems other people seem to be having the same issue on similar hardware.

Literally any help at this point would be amazing.

I started having this issue about four nights ago. Suspecting a Lightroom Classic memory leak as the memory pressure builds by just keeping Lr open and not even doing any work on it. Work production to a halt. Ive got a brand new apple studio with the M2 Ultra chip and 8 tb ssd.

Yep Lightroom is virtually unusable for Macbook users right now. Hopefully someone at Adobe sees this thread??
