Re: Lightroom 5.6 Slooow!!

Just confirming very slow performance on my system too.

 

Lightroom CC 5.6 x64, Windows 8.1 Pro x64, Intel i7-3770k, 16gb ram, Samsung 240 Pro SSD, Asus Sabertooth Z77, Nvidia GeForce GTX-670. I am editing DNG files which were converted from .CR2 taken by Canon 5D III.

 

Issues got really bad with Lr 5.6.  

 

Lr grinds to a halt when trying to apply a crop, especially with rotation, and even more if I have applied a mask to the photograph. I get 2-3 processes appearing in my task bar that are titled "Bezel.exe" and those flash on and off. Task manager reports Lr as not responding, and CPU usage at 99%.   I'm able to get the system operating after repeatedly pressing G to exit the develop module and get into the gallery. Once I get to gallery, Lr stabilizes and functionality resumes. Why does this work? I have no clue, but it's not a solution since it still takes me a few minutes after each crop before functionality resumes.

 

Also, if I have a brush active, and I hold Space to drag the photo, Lr grinds to a halt again. The picture jumps across the screen for a few minutes until it finally gets to where I stopped dragging. Even the brush itself is delayed as it follows my mouse. Spot healing brush lines will sometimes remain even after I have unselected the tool. Zooming out or changing the position of the images makes them disappear.

 

I have my program, library, and scratch disk running off SSD's. My Windows virtual ram is set to 4gb. Anything less than that causes Lr to crash my computer resulting in a BSOD. I have Lightroom's cache's set to 3gb for video and photo, though I don't do any video editing. I am constantly clearing the cache's restarting the computer, and restarting Lr. These settings allow me to edit for the most part without crashing my computer. Anything less than that results in BSOD.  I did not have these problems with earlier versions of Lr 5...though I did with Lr4.  I'm not sure how to re-install an older version of Lr CC.  I just hope a patch is released soon.  User Rob Cole up above mentioned some programming fix that sped up his machine. I am no programmer, but I would like to try that option too if I knew how.
