When browsing through photos in the Library module, I'm dealing with two VERY major delays. I've just updated to version v13.3 today, and I don't feel like I've experienced delays like these to this extent in the previous version of Lightroom.
- When updating 'Flag as pick / Unflag', it seems like the filmstrip / grid overview doesn't update at all, even though the "Flag as pick" text is displayed rightaway. I've waited 2 minutes after flagging an image using "P" and getting the text confirmation, but it's just not displaying at the bottom.
- When adding an image to the target collection using the "B" hotkey, it takes a LONG time before the "added to collection" message comes up. As in, longer than 1 or 2 MINUTES if I wait for it. Sometimes it seems to not come up at all. Just now I CLOSED Lightroom Classic, and 1 minute after closing, the "Added to collection" message showed up on my desktop!
Both of these things happen to me when browsing through a folder with about 7000 images in it. When I swap to a smaller folder and restart Lightroom, the delay with flagging was less, about 1 to 10 seconds. My entire catalog is rather large, over 400k images.
The folder I'm going through is about 24 days old, and back when I imported it I do believe I built smart previews and possibly also 1:1 previews, but I can't be sure. Either way, I don't feel like 2 minute delays or general unresponsiveness is acceptable when browsing through a folder that doesn't have those previews built.
I've restarted lightroom and confirmed that the changes I made to images (the flagging / unflagging) did save, but they just don't show up in the film strip or grid view. I d the "Metadata" column selected without any applied filters, but when I disable that (choose "None" at the top) and restart lightroom, the delay from flagging/unflagging is still about 1 minute.
I would very much appreciate if someone could help troubleshoot this issue, or let me know if it's happening on your end as well.
