  1. macOS 10.15 Catalina
New imac 2020 ssd, i7, amd radeon pro 5700xt 16gb , 64gb ram.

So my stats are showing very high gpu just after opening Lightroom. Just running in the background and the gpu says 44%. When I make some standard adjustment with the exposure ex it ramps up to 100%. And lightroom got slow. Funny is that it won't go down, I need to quit lightroom.
I upgraded from a 2012 imac, who in the last few months started to struggle with lightroom. Photoshop was running better.
It is kinda close to not seeing any difference in lightroom than with the 2012.

Turning off GPU in Lrc makes the zoom jerky.

Is it normal with that high of gpu usage? Its almost taking 50% to have it open.
