#ADOBE BRIDGE ALTERNATIVE UPDATE#

I can tell which are and which aren't, both by feel and watching the GPU usage meter. It's enabled on some of my older Macs, but their GPUs are too old and weak to take good advantage of this.Д«ut the gains are not universal because not all features are accelerated yet.

It needs a relatively recent GPU and decent amount of VRAM to make a difference. The new GPU option is enabled in Preferences if your graphics hardware is supported, it's a good idea to check and see if it is enabled properly. It should help users with 4K monitors, because of the same improved efficiency of pushing large numbers of pixels, but I don't have a 4K monitor to try that with. Personally I have seen it make a big difference in responsiveness when editing, especially high megapixel images. Lightroom Classic 8.4 and Adobe Camera Raw 11.4, both released around a couple weeks ago, add a new GPU acceleration option where the GPU is now used in actual image processing. And sometimes people turned it off because it ended up slowing down some operations or causing glitches. There was already a GPU option, I think added in version 7, but it was apparently only for speeding up display of the processed pixels to the screen, and didn't accelerate much else. Suffice it to say that LightRoom is a resource hog, and really needs a fast modern well configured computer to shine when your catalog gets large, or you start to process those 60MPixel images everyone wants these said: My first suggestion would be to get your LightRoom up to the current updated version and see if that doesn't solve some of your issues.Дidn't ask what your computer environment is - processors, RAM, SSD vs HDs, etc. I haven't used Bridge for many years, LR is that much better - LR Classic is now version 8.4

#ADOBE BRIDGE ALTERNATIVE UPDATE#

There was an update to LightRoom Classic recently and I notice a significant improvement in speed in the Library mode ( think browser window ) - Apparently Adobe has decided to let our computers use the high speed GPUs they possess in modern desktop/laptop computers.ДЄdobe never really tells us why things are better, but I do see a REAL increase in speed of moving through the Library pages of image displays and in using the selective editing brushes - tasks which previously really slowed by computer down
