Photoshop 2021 & Camera RAW Input Delay

Hello,
I work with Photoshop 2021 & Camera RAW 13.0 and shoot with a Canon 5DSR and drones. I edit 50-megapixel and 12-megapixel photographs all the time. I have noticed a delay with my inputs/adjustments when using Photoshop 2021 & Camera RAW 13.0. It makes the workflow very slow and agonizing. I’ve edited both a 12-megapixel and then a 50-megapixel photograph separate with the same delayed performance.

 

I have updated my system’s hardware, and I feel no changes in my workflow. I would like to know if it is my system, settings, or am I asking too much from my machine to run smoothly while editing photographs.

 

Surprising, Light Room is way smoother to work with, but I prefer Photoshop 2021 & Camera RAW 13.0.

 

System Specs:

RTX 2070 Super

Intel i7-9700k overclocked 4.50 GHz

Ram 32GB

Correct answer klavey

I also found out Camera Raw (13.0.2) works much smoother on my laptop then my desktop which is having problems.

Spec for laptop:

GTX 1060

Intel i5-7300HQ

Ram 8GB

 

I also have uninstalled and deleted all file for Photoshop (22.0.1) and Camera Raw (13.0.2) on my Desktop computer and reinstalled but no change in performace for Camera Raw (13.0.2).


I think I found the problem!

Ya, I read that somewhere, but I don't really want to purchase Acronis True Image 2021 just to fix the problem when I already have 2019 which does what I need it to do. I know which task is causing the problem now, so I can manage it.

Hello Nikunji,

 

Thanks for the info which helped photoshop from being more efficacy (does not dropdown below 90%). Camera Raw (13.0.2) is still a problem I still get delays with my inputs/adjustments. The software also slows down to a crawl. all hardware is barely being utilized. I am only editing 5, 12-megapixel photographs.

 

Performace setting in Raw are limited but are set as GPU: Custom & Camera Raw Cache 20GB
