![]() That being said, all is not lost.Ī few years back Adobe added a feature that allows customers to use proxy files (Adobe calls them Smart Previews) in lieu of the full size file. However, the fact that you've been issued with it means that you can't complain too loudly.ĭavid has already suggested some things that might help, but in truth they're tinkering at the edge, and I mean the edge. The specs for your machine are really at the lower end of LrC system requirements. (ref 3) 10 Ways to Speed Up Adobe Lightroom CC HOW TO USE LIGHTROOM FASTER ![]() (ref 2) Peta Pixel | How to Optimize Lightroom Classic for the Best Performance Using Smart Previews, and Converting to DNG This is because LrC is a parametric editor.Īn additional reference, mostly the same but with a somewhat different look, (ref 2) talks about the Camera RAW CACHE better, and brings up a quirk (not so sure if still viable) about a setting in PS that can effect LrC."Optimize RAM settings in Photoshop"Īnd, (ref 3) a bit dated. One thing to restate, each time you do an edit, LrC its way thru that history, all the previous edits, recreates the pixels, moves to the next, and next, ubtill it gets to the last edit, recreates the pixels again, so slower and slower. You could just reset all that, start again, without those false leads. One thing you could do, say you made lots of edits, many you changed your mind on and redid. Requires experience, requires time in product. Mentioned in part above, but mote on that, read it. Also, try to leave these mods to last, also consider doing these nods via Edit in Photoshop. Issue is these mods are intensive, even though you just see the one line in the history, many mods requiring a rewright of pixels are involved. Spot Removal tool, local corrections, and History panel It is a database, it gets beat up, optimize cleans things up. Unless you need to share the LrC edits with someone, you really do not need this Keep standard-size previews as small as possibleĭo not select to make standard previews larger than the display defaults, perhaps even go lower And you can work with different view sizes (1:2, 1:3) This is about reducing the number of pixels LrC creates each time a develop module edit is touched, and the issue gets compounded with each and every edit. But you can reduce the LrC display on your screen. ![]() On a MAC, you cannot reduce the resolution, Oh you can play with scaling, but that will not help. See (ref 1) obviously many of the tips listed cannot be accomplished on the computer in hand. The delay is specifically with Lightroom Classic, and mysteriously, also with almost all of the direct competitors to Lightroom Classic. If you don’t need any DAM features and just want a raw processor, then:Īdobe Photoshop: Apple-Silicon native nowĪdobe currently has public betas available for Apple Silicon-native versions of Illustrator, InDesign, and three of their digital video/audio applications, so they are hardly sitting around doing nothing.Īdobe in general isn’t finger-pointing at Apple, because they’re already providing Apple Silicon-native Photoshop and Lightroom along with all of those public betas. For some reason, all the other major Lightroom Classic alternatives are also not yet Apple Silicon-native at this time. The only Apple Silicon-native alternative is RAW Power, but it is not nearly as capable as Lightroom Classic. They have promised Lightroom Classic, just haven’t finished it yet. So Adobe is already one of two companies that has Apple Silicon-native software, with Lightroom. On1 Raw: Announced but not available yet.ĭarktable (free, open source): No announcement Skylum Luminar: Announced but not available yet. Phase One CaptureOne: Announced but not available yet. But if it’s time to switch to something else, which Apple Silicon-native software would you switch to? Looking into which alternatives are M1-ready, here is the situation as of today, for raw editors that have at least some DAM capability:Īdobe Lightroom: Apple-Silicon native nowĪdobe Lightroom Classic: Announced but not available yet. Sure, we need an Apple Silicon native Lightroom Classic now, since it’s been months since those Macs were released. The situation does not seem to be as extreme and polarized as that, not if you look at the big picture.
