This can happen, for example, if a process is buggy or has crashed, or even (worst-case scenario) when your Mac has been infected by a virus. It might be due to one or several of the following factors:īackground processes that drain your performance: macOS does a bad job of informing you when a process constantly consumes precious CPU cycles or memory. Welcome to the world of technology, where there is no one single answer to that question. I paid top-dollar for such an expensive machine and continue to pay through my teeth for Adobe's subscription service, so am I not entitled to a smooth, hassle-free experience? Is it Apple's fault or Adobe's or both or neither?Īny advice is greatly appreciated as I am in a fix.How to Speed Up a Slow Mac in 9 Simple Steps | Avast Logo Ameba Icon Security Icon Security White Icon Privacy Icon Performance Icon Privacy Icon Security Icon Performance Icons/45/01 Security/Other-Threats Icons / 32 / Bloatware removal Icons / 32 / Registry Cleaner Icons / 32 / CleanUp Icons / Feature / 32 / Mac Icons / 32 / Browser cleanup Icons/32/01 Security/Malware Icons/32/01 Security/Viruses Icons/32/01 Security/Other-Threats Icons/32/01 Security/Passwords Icons/32/01 Security/Ransomware Icons/32/01 Security/Business Icons/32/02 Privacy/Browser Icons/32/02 Privacy/IP adress Icons/32/02 Privacy/VPN Icons/32/02 Privacy/Proxy Icons/32/02 Privacy/Streaming Icons/32/03 Performance/Celaning Icons/32/03 Performance/Drivers Icons/32/03 Performance/Gaming Icons/32/03 Performance/Hardware Icons/32/03 Performance/Speed Icons / 32 / Bloatware removal Icons / 32 / Registry Cleaner Win Icons / 32 / CleanUp Icons / Feature / 32 / Mac Icons / 32 / Browser cleanup Icons/60/02 Privacy/02_Privacy Icons/60/01 Security/01_Security Icons/60/03 Performance/03_Performance Icons/80/01 Security/IoT Icons/80/01 Security/Malware Icons/80/01 Security/Passwords Icons/80/01 Security/Ransomware Icons/80/01 Security/Viruses Icons/80/01 Security/Other-Threats Icons/80/03 Security/Business Icons/80/02 Privacy/Browser Icons/80/02 Privacy/IP adress Icons/80/02 Privacy/VPN Icons/80/02 Privacy/Proxy Icons/80/02 Privacy/Streaming Icons/80/03 Performance/Celaning Icons/80/03 Performance/Drivers Icons/80/03 Performance/Gaming Icons/80/03 Performance/Hardware Icons/80/03 Performance/Speed Icons/80/03 Performance/03_Performance Icons/80/02 Privacy/02_Privacy So What am I doing wrong?

I do not believe I am a 'heavy' photoshop user, as I primarily use the software for light editing, some poster making and some regular stuff like double exposure and composite images etc. GPU is switched on, RAM allocation is at 70%. My hard drive is 512GB (SSD) and approximately 200 GB + is always free, so I know I have not filled it to the brim.

They take a few seconds to appear, which is not normal, I know. For example, any tags or captions I have to enter (in text) along with a picture have extreme lag, and do not appear in real-time. Whenever I try to upload a picture and Photoshop is running, the whole process becomes much slower than when Photoshop is off. Another issue that never came up earlier.

I write for a website, so our CMS is web-based and filling in text on my posts becomes a tedious process while Photoshop is running, I have noticed too. It generally pops up on the first instance of clicking Command + O. If the application has been running on idle in the background for a while and then I click Command + O, the spinning wheel does not appear. It's not for long, but it never used to appear before. However, of late, especially since upgrading to Mac OS High Sierra towards the end of November, I have noticed several performances issues while opening Photoshop.Įspecially when I start the application and click on open new document (Command + O), the spinning wheel appears for a couple of seconds. While initially I had several issues related to power (battery would drain super fast) and heat (machine would get extremely loud and hot within seconds of launching Photoshop or Lightroom), trips to Apple's service centre and multiple chats with Adobe's service team seem to have sorted out those issues, for now at least. Bought the machine and the subscription in March 2016, to be exact. I have been running Adobe Photoshop CC on my Retina MacBook Pro 15-inch (with discrete Graphics) for the past two years.
