REDDIT LIGHTROOM CLASSICFOR MAC PRO

I'm running Lightroom Classic on a Late 2013 MacBook Pro Retina with only 8 megs ram and it runs fairly well with my 24-28 megapixel DNGs and raws, now nearing somewhere around 6,000 images. I see these posts and I'm always perplexed. but I am no techie and hopefully such issues will be ironed out with M1 specific Lighroom classic. Im convinced that it is the processing that is struggling than any memory issues. And the collection with NO local edits had 180 pictures. In fact the collection with local edits had only 25 pictures and only 4 pictures had local edits. To check if it was just the local edits causing issues, I tried a collection without any local edits and it was as smooth as my iMac. What I noticed in the MacBook Pro was that if a collection has local edits it really struggles with loading pictures in that collection to the point of getting physically hot. The catalog is stored locally and synced using iCloud Drive as sometimes I use my iMac (which by the way is buttery smooth for the same process). Also all my pictures are stored on an external hard drive organized in folders.

I create a new collection for every shoot but within the same catalogue. I should mention my camera only produces DNG files. The only downside is that I could get the same performance from met older 15' MacBook Pro with a scaled display on the same external monitor. The issue also disappears when using the M1 MacBook's display. ĮDIT2: I found a 'Fix', it turns out that my 4K external monitor is the problem- I normally scale the resolution to my liking under 'system preferences-> displays' but when I switch it to 'scaled' (which looks ugly and blown up), Lightroom behaves AS good as with my previous MacBook.

Adding a preset would take 1-2 full seconds for effect.Īm I doing something wrong here or have I made a terrible decision in choosing the 16GB model for my needs?Ĭould it be a result of performance losses due to Rosetta?Įdit: for reference, here's the video comparing 16GB and 8GB of RAM on Lightroom Classic. I can't even move to the next picture with the arrow keys without having to wait a full second in the Develop module trying to skip a picture will lead to a bit blank screen for about 5 seconds. I shot an engagement session yesterday and loaded up 950 30.3MP Raw files to edit and my oh my was the experience unusable. I'm moving from the 2018 MacBook Pro 15' with 16GB RAM and a dedicated GPU (560X). With all the hype around the M1 Chip, I decided to go for the 8GB RAM version of the MBP after watching Max Tech's video comparing 16GB and 8GB RAM models showing minor performance differences.
