Photoshop 2025 Brush Lag

[laurafear93]

Hi, I just updated my photoshop to 2025 and have noticed a considerable brush lag since the update.  Normally I go to settings>preferences>deactivate native canvas rulers, but I don't see that option in 2025.  Any advice on how to improve the brush lag?

Is this just with the paint brush or other brushes? Do you have a high value in brush smoothing?

The brushes I use are pretty basic.  I have my brush smoothing set to 0%.

This is happen to me as well. It could be a 500px by 500px image with a simple round brush, and it lags.

Same here.. brush size 100px, 95% hardness, 1% spacing (although 25% spacing didn't make a difference).. it's been over a month since OP's original post.. no word from adobe?

Solution - updating PS reset the settings and turned on brush smoothing again.. turning this off (in brush settings) fixes the problem
