Question

Latest update is making LRc run extremely slow

Earlier today, LRc updated (13.3) and Mac updated (Sonoma 14.5). 

Now, it's taking 12-16 seconds per action I'm trying to make on ONE image. I.E., I'm cropping down an image - 7-8 seconds to do so. 

I uninstalled and re-installed LRc also. 

I've also restarted my laptop twice in hopes it would help to no avail. 

 

Is anyone else having the same issue and, if so, how do I correct this?

I am having the same issue.  Takes 15min to move any number of photos from one folder to another.  Looking at Activity Monitor on my M3 Max mbp and it's killing my battery, energy, etc... not sure what is going on but hope this resolves quickly.  LRc is unuseable at this point for me.

i updated lightroom to the "new ai update/may 2024 updates", i think it was called, and i noticed so distinctly, that my app responds way way slower now. whats funny is prior, i switched from my ipad to my laptop cuz it was so laggy on my ipad, but after update, my situation became more frustrating. i have a photography project due tomorrow and im just so dumbfounded hahaha.

i realized that my issue might be isolated to the photo that i was editing on my ipad and the same one i was trying to edit on my laptop after the update. i reckon the different versions of the files are conflicting. editing my other images works smoothly except for the one that was simultaneously syncing from my ipad and to my laptop during which, i decided to update my laptop version.

Please post a copy of your 'System Info'. You can obtain this from the LrC Help > System Info menu item.

Your System Info doesn't show anything that would suggest or be respnsible for LrC running slow.

 

In your original post you wrote -

 

"Now, it's taking 12-16 seconds per action I'm trying to make on ONE image. I.E., I'm cropping down an image - 7-8 seconds to do so."

 

Is that ONE specific image? If yes, then it may be something in the image (another edit?) that LrC is getting hung up with. Can you share the image with us using Dropbox or similar?

Has your Resync (required with the 13.3 update) completed?  Performance will suffer until the sync completes. 

Check the Cloud icon in the upper right and see if you are still syncing.
