Capture One v.5 speed
I just try Capture One v.5 on my MacPro intel Quad OS 10.5.8
I did not remove v.4.8.3 but run v.5 in DB mode.
I open old session .col45 and found it automatically launch C1v.5 and create new session .col50. It is fine.
But it seems v.5 everything is much slower than v.4.8.3
C1v.5 slowdown the whole system. In v4.8.3 everything will be slow down only when I develop a lot of files. But v.5 slowdown everything since it first started.
I just wonder anyone got the same problem? I really like to get new function like multiple small focusing window, focus mask, watermark, RGB level etc.
But I am so afraid about the bug like the very beginning v.4
I would like to hear from others. How do you feel the v.5?
Is it worth upgrade now or just wait and stick to v.4.8.3?

I have also a MacPro Quad Nehalem 2,93Ghz with 8Gb of Ram on Snow Leopard (10.6.1), and I have no speed issue, it runs fast... And I do not have noticed any bug yet.
Maybe you should give a try to Snow Leopard, I am a professional photographer and I have no issue with my different software : Photoshop CS4, Lightroom 2 (I do not use it to process raw files as C1 is far better, and still better than the Lightroom 3 beta version that I am testing), NikonScan (it runs on Rosetta), etc...0 -
If you have alot of files that are loading it may just be creating previews for the first time, Capture One 5 will generate all new preview files and settings files. You can open the activities window from the Window menu and it will show what Capture One is doing in the background. One the files are loaded it should run faster....
...If not do a clean install of Capture One 5, including uninstalling 4.8.3 if ou havent already: http://xchange.phaseone.com/home/Conten ... nguageid=1. Then create a new session and things should be a faster.0 -
Thanks Jon. I follow your suggestion. Uninstall 4.8.3 and start new session v.5
P45+ is fast now.
Try to open old session create with 4.8.3 everything is so slow in the beginning.
It seems v.5 create all new preview so it takes a lot of time.
Try using focus mask. It works nice but when turn on with old session. It slow everythings down.
I also try open some M9 files and found something strange. The files which took with Noct at iso800 and 1600. Focus mask shows all the noise in the dark as sharp area. So almost the whole pictures become green mask. Actually the whole pictures is so soft.
Anyway, so far no crash yet. It seems v.5 is nice upgrade.0 -

Delete the preview files of older sessions first. The files are in the session folder/capture one/cache and have the extension *.cop (also you can simply search in the Finder for .cop and delete them all). V5 then will recreate the previews - so when you open the session for the first time it takes some time to create the previews, but once rendered V5 is fast. Esecially scrolling through thumbnails is much faster now; almost as fast as in V3.

As to the focus mask... again: V5 first has to render the files (the respective files have the extension .cof). Once created everything should go fast.
You can set the sensitivity for the focus mask in the preferences.0 -

I have tried to turn focus mask on and off. It seems everytime I turn focus mask on or off. All the small thumbnail will regenerate the green mask and slow everything down for a moment. So it is not flexible to turn it on and off during tethering shoot.
So far v.5 is very stable. I open old session shoot with v.4.8.3, delete all cache folder which contains about 307 files. Wait all cache regenerate, adjust color contrast, turn on off focus mask, all step is very long, then develop all files no crash at all. But sometimes it just pause and no response until I wonder it crash or not. Check with activity monitor no crash.
I just hope focus mask will be much faster otherwise it will be useless in real world tethering shoot.0 -

with tethered shooting I didn't check by now.

It's a bit strange how C1 caches files... when you open a session and scroll htorugh thumbnails it's not so fast. Once you hide the viewer so that the browser goes all over the screen and you scroll the browser down so that all thumnails have been displayed once, then you can show the viewer and scrolling through thmunails will be fast (as first now the are cached... obviously).
Or in short: first after you displayed or even better selected all thumnails once, scrolling - and show/hide focus mask as well - is fast. Prior to that it's slow.0 -
Original comments removed by poster... I thought there was a speed issue, but did the clean install as described by Jon and now seems much snappier. Thanks Jon 0 -
Thanks Thowi for your reply.
Problem solve. I delete Proxies folder in cache folder.
The new recreated cache files has .cop and .cof which makes everything fast now.
Somehow old one has only .cop no .cof.
Maybe I should not keep all 307 raw files in one folder.
Keeping in separate folder should speed up the thumbnail preview.
The more I use v.5 the more I like. Great job! phaseone.0 -

I also find that v5 is fast under OSX 10.6.1 but not so stable as under 10.5.8. On other hand I'm not sure my OSX SL is so perfect as expected. Sometimes it crashes without any special reason. With CS4, NX2 no difficulty but they don't use same ressources as C1. However it's worth to try SL in any case.
C1 v5 is when looking at picture rendering much better as LR2/LR3 (but it's a beta) and also better, for my personal preferences, as C1 v4.8.x .
