    Develop module Masking tool running slowly on fast machine LR11

    Hi, The new LR11 masking tool is a game changer, but I'm running into some issues. 'Select Subject' takes anywhere between 8-10 seconds each image to detect until the red overlay appears. The images aren't difficult as they are just standard engagement/wedding portraits of a couple shot almost...

    Keywords- slow

    Since the last two updates to LR 10 I find the program is slowing down, having to close and open. Lately, adding keywords is almost impossible. It will start to auto complete and just hang. I have also noticed that when in PS, for no reason I can see, it will go back to LR! I had rolled back...

    Slow closing of LR

    We are having a problem when we close LR Classic as it takes up to 10 minutes to close up. I have no other performance issues with LR when I am working with it but it takes a long time to shut down. Any ideas would be welcomed.

    LrC 9.3 Import/Export *EX* Slow but LR 6.14 works fine? Hardware conflict?

    Hi guys! Here's the issue: LrC 9.3 will slow to a complete crawl 4 out of 5 times when Importing or Exporting. Yet LR 6.14 will have zero problems importing/exporting the very same files on the same disks. By slow I mean 5 1920x1920px jpegs can sometimes take upto 35 minutes to import. At...

    Catalog Overload?

    Hi! Been a LR user since 2015. With half a decade worth of files, I am noticing a significant slowing down of LR (especially when backing up). Is it advisable to say, create a separate catalog for archive purposes and have an active working catalog? Or would it just cause more confusion in the...

    I just upgraded from W7 to W10 and LR CC became extremely slow. I ran a search about it but all results are from last year. I have no idea why exporting became so insanely slow. Building previews too, clicking on settings and changing them adds seconds until you see the result. Use graphics...
