Very interesting... Wonder what the “new” GPU acceleration feature will bring performance wise. My understanding was Lightroom only used GPU acceleration in Develop before, but the way she explains it, it seems it was actually only used to accelerate the display of images in develop - not doing the actual calculations when applying edits.....
Can you let us know what size your monitor is (in pixels, not inches) and what GPU you have installed, and how large (in megapixels) are the images you are working with?
I have
Thanks, interesting to know you are seeing fast performance even though you don't have a 4K monitor.
Are you shooting RAW ? Camera Matching profiles are not available for JPG.
Yes, I am talking about RAW, of course. (I thought that was obvious.
)Interesting. I am currently on the new I5 Surface Pro, which handeled LR okay‘ish until the update. Now it is just terrible. Everything is lagging and the Surface feels like an old machine.
Try disabling GPU acceleration. The Built-in Intel GPU is CRAP at OpenGL/CL and as such is much slower that your processor when it turbo’s to about 3Ghz. My guess is the update enabled full GPU acceleration, and without a proper GPU that could have the adverse effect.
I tried it on my PC this evening, and it has definitely brought a more responsive develop module. It’s not perfect yet, but the sliders are noticeably more interactive and thus increases the speed and develop experience
According to Cameras supported by Camera Raw, the following cameras ARE now supported:
“Support” does not mean that Camera Matching profiles exist for these cameras. You should try it for yourself and you will see. (You can find Raw files from most of these cameras in sample galleries on this site.)
The Surface Pro just has relative weak Intel integrated graphics, not a GPU by any reasonable definition. If LR actually enabled GPU support it may not be useful at all.
