C1 10 slow performance on two computers, simple files

    I see similar behaviour on C1 10. It is actually really bad with TIFF files. If I try to zoom into a TIFF file my MacBook Pro Retina i7 with 16GB RAM sometimes hangs for Minutes!

    Tech support told me to turn off OpenCL options, and, to do this: "In addition to disabling openCL there is another item you can try which is to delete this folder: Hard Drive (your hard drive name) > Users > Shared > Capture One > Image Core."

    Just to clarify what Support have already told you:
    Remember that the files in that folder are used for OpenCL. So if you are already on Never for Hardware Acceleration, there is no point in deleting these kernel files afterwards.
    It has to be done the other way around. Delete the kernel files first, try your flow, and then, if still present, set HW Acceleration to None.

    In general, setting HW Acceleration to None, should only be done as a last resort, as doing so can greatly affect performance in a negative way. However, for testing- and debug-purposes, of course flick it back and forth

    I assume that an exception to that advice would be where the currently installed GPU driver may be suspected of causing processing problems and therefore disabling it for C1 as a test would make sense.

    Likewise temporarily changing the Hardware acceleration preference setting to "none" is also a reasonable test to undertake when looking for an instant "fix" of some sort or attempting to diagnose a problem.


    I think this is implied in Christian's responses on the forum.

    However some people may be taking the statement literally and therefore completely compromising their ability to use C1 at all rather than ending up with a functional though perhaps somewhat slower system for a short period whilst their problem is assessed and a solution identified.

    My thoughts for what they are worth.

    Good point about wording, I have edited my suggestion. Thanks.
