Lightroom Painfully Slow

[andystock]

Hello,

I'm having some performance issues with Lightroom CC 2015, the latest update.  It's slow to show edits and load the previews.  I have a powerful PC but it seems to be really slow.  See my specs below and tell me if I should be expecting better performance.

i7-5930K CPU, overclocked to 4.2GHz

64 GB RAM

2 (yes 2) AMD Firepro W9100's with 32GB VRAM each

I feel like it should be faster.  Photoshop and Première Pro run very well.  Any ideas?

Thanks!

It is unlikely that you can send Eric Chan anything. That's not how Adobe works. You can't "choose to interact" with the development team; however they can choose to interact with you. Go to Photoshop Family Customer Community  and explain your problem there.

This is way to much effort Adobe expects from customers. Specially those like me, being also developer since 1986. For me this forum and the channel over the Ps Family Customer Community is nothing else than an immense waste of time.

Just two examples: I am was posting for so many times that since 2005 (or so) there is a discussion in so many forums that Radial/Zoom Blur Filter should get a Preview. No replies. Or nothing saying replies, just blabla - empty phrases and lame excuses.

The other one is concerning Lr (greetings to Eric): why the heck it is not possible to add a filter to import tool that I can exclude all this video files on SD card and only select still images by one click. If you have video and stills on the same card it is a pain in the ... not to to import accidentally a video - which I edit by the way in FCPX or DaVinci Resolve, both 10x as performant as Premiere. Same game concerning this issue: no reply, and if, only lame excuses.

Conclusion: Big fat rich dinosaur Adobe has ZERO customer awareness my dear... - and that is for sure as true as the death comes to each one some day (we say so in German spoken counties, I have no clue if I can translate this literally - nor do I know the English saying).

Feature requests have their proper places. Some are getting implemented, some don’t.

Just compare Affinity Photo workflow - seconds - versus Photoshop workflow (try and error to achieve result accidentally). This is trivial to solve for Adobe, but not done for ages. Here my YT video comparing this, it is in Liechtenstein dialect, but you must not understand it, pictures explaining very well what's going on Precise positioning Radial Blur Photoshop - Präzises positionieren Radialer Weichzeichner Photoshop ...

Nice video! And Liechtenstein German is easy to understand. Better then Schwizerdütsch. Affinity has also a Lightroom competitor. May be you should change.
