CO8 slow loading

kieth kiesel
Running CO8 on a Dell Inspiron with a i5 processor and 8 gig of ram. It takes forever for the splash screen to go away and load the main program. Any thoughts as to why it takes so long?

    Is it a dual core processor or quad core (not sure whether there are i5 quad cores anyway)? A dual core processor may take a long time for CO8 to load. Same for HDD or SDD.

    I have the same problem with Win8.1 an an i7 4700HQ and this is a Quad, as far as I know.

    8 takes much longer to open than 7 for me too, on a quad core box.

    Hmm.

    I have one session with around 1550 variants using the V8 engine at the moment. It's on an external USB3 hard drive rather than the internal SSD.

    I have a similarly sized session running data from an identical external HDD but plugged into a USB2 socket on the notebook (3mtr cable which works fine on USB2 but erratically on USB3).

    I just ran back to back tests ofter a a restart (just to level the playing field) and there was very little difference in the start up time. V8 possibly a tad slower but nothing I would stake my opinion on. That said I do see that sometimes the external drive seems to have gone into a low power mode/some form of hibernation and needs to be woken up or some time before it responds at full speed.

    One thing I did spot is that my default preview files size in V7 is set to 1920px. The V8 installation default seemed to be set to to 1280px. My screen native resolution is 1920. Just wondering if there may be some re-drawing activity going on on application open that could slow things down under certain circumstances.

    Same for me, even in sessions. The catalog s are very slow. They seem like they are constantly redoing things that they did before.

    Another thing that I noticed is when I zoom in on a photo say from 25% to 50% it takes a few seconds for the photo to become sharp again. Could this be a video driver problem? 😕

    C1 will likely be recalculating the entire image. Depending on your graphics card capability (and in some cases the type of edits applied) it mayt or may not be using the GPU's OpenCL capability if it has any.

    You also need to consider the performance spec of your i5.

    I use a notebook with an i7 (3820QM @ 2.7GHz) which will typically reprocess most images I throw at it (not exceeding about 18Mpix in my case) in a second or less. No OpenCL used afaik.. The main drive is a fast SSD. Using a USB3 external for session storage slows things down a bit at times.

    I would doubt that an i5 of any spec would give me a warm feeling having become used to the i7. A suitable enormous energy sucking GPU might help ... but that would have to be a desktop not a laptop.
