Updated to the newest version of lightroom

[Hawaiian Sea Horse]

Is anyone having trouble with lightroom? I've updated it and its moving like miss Daisy. My goodness my criple cousin can run faster than lightroom. I updated to lates version and it takes for ever.

Please post your System Information as Lightroom Classic (LrC) reports it. In LrC click on Help, then System Info, then Copy. Paste that information into a reply. Please present all information from first line down to and including Plug-in Info. Info after Plug-in info can be cut as that is just so much dead space to us non-Techs.

[DdeGannes]

At Imagelistner, your issue may not be the same as the Original Poster of this thread since we do not even know what operating system is involved.

Another issue is you are likely running a "beta version" of macOS. The release version is macOS 11.

[Imagelistener]

Thank you for the answer, I'm sorry to have posted in the wrong thread.
In any way I'm not using a beta version og MacOs as you can see in the image below. I don't know why it is reported another version in the system info inside LrC.

[dj_paige]

Please give us more information.

Slow at doing what tasks? Describe exactly what is slow.

[Hawaiian Sea Horse]

I love lightroom classic. I use it a lot

[rob_ashcroft]

I have found it slow since I started using it, six months ago. I've decided (because I want a new processor) that the problem lies there, so I just order a new processor an hour ago! But your spec looks reasonably good, so I wouldn't try that one at home. I found recently that regularly deleting the 'previews' file in the Lightroom folder make a difference to performance, but you need to make sure you are not in LR when you delete it. Mine was up to 22GB yesterday and it was taking up a big chunk of my SSD. Is your Lightroom directory on your SSD? You have a few plugins in use, can you temporarily disable them to see if one of them is causing a problem?

Do you use the Geforce Experience utility fot the graphics card? You driver needs to be up top date. If you don't do gaming on the PC then donload the specially tailored studio version driver as it is supposed to be better suited to creative stuff.

 At rob ashcroft - Quote "I found recently that regularly deleting the 'previews' file in the Lightroom folder make a difference to performance, but you need to make sure you are not in LR when you delete it. Mine was up to 22GB yesterday and it was taking up a big chunk of my SSD. Is your Lightroom directory on your SSD?"

If deleting 22 GB of previews from your SSD and you notice improvement then that suggests that your SSD is short on free disk space. So if you have a 500GB SSD you need to ensure you have at least 100GB ( 20% ) free more would be better.

After the 10.1 update LR Classic is running extremely slow.  Constant spinning beachball when doing anything.  Almost unusable.  How can I revert to previous version?

The version you have installed is a " Beta version " the release version recently it is macOS 11 (Big Sur).

[carl37]

That is another Lightroom error.  I am running Big Sur:

There was a similar issue reported in the Photoshop Feedback forum. Using a custom display profile with LrC 10 can cause the system performance issues. Please see the solutions offered at the below report link.
