Photoshop CS6 Lag!

[Dekus]

Here are some lag fixes ive found so far (wacom driver issues aside)

1st-photoshop is always saving in the background which is probably the main issue… you can turn this off in: Preferences > File Handling > ‘Save in Background’

(beware… this will disable autoback)

2nd- links to the first, if you on a network or using network drive, this problem will get SO much worse, sometimes ill be waiting a minute just to turn on a layer… So sometimes you might have to work on your local drive.

3rd - it might be ur AV… so add ps into exceptions… this wasnt a total fix for the issue for me but did speed things up a little.

hope this helps

Auto-Backup really slows things down that much? wow… ok Thanks!
I’m not using any network drives or anything… and besides, it’s generally a good idea to always work locally, then move stuff later if needed.

I found out my personal epic lagging issue… by accident.
I always have Color Proofing on to view my paintings as they will appear after I render out a .png or anything… (Proofing is set to my Monitor RGB)

Now I accidentally turned it off… and BAM! Super fast 3D in PS! Gained like +20-30 fps!
Now I’ve set up my Color Settings in PS to Monitor RGB so I don’t have to use the Color Proofing option and my images get to look the same as when I render them out.

Now look at this:
PS6 = meh
PS 7 = Legendary
PS 8 = meh
PS CS1 = ok
PS CS2 = bad
PS CS3 = Personally I think the best Photoshop ever
PS CS4 = Personally I think the worst Adobe package ever…
PS CS5 = Great!
PS CS6 = You guessed it!!

I am sooo waiting for CS7

There was no Photoshop 8. Photoshop CS1 = Photoshop 8.
