We`ve got such a problem with delays zooming or just with windows by Ctrl + L or Ctrl + B. This problem only occurs when OpenGL is disable and a lot ot images are loaded. When I load 80 images - CS4 feel bad, but when you work with one loaded photo of even 2Gb - there is no problem. I mailed question to adobe support about work with big amount of photos and waiting for answer. I work in photo laboratary and such perfomance is very critical for us. If it unsolve - we will think about downgrade to cs3. You posted May. 12th, 2009. May be you solve the problem? Hi Matt!

Leopard. Latest updates of everything. Scratch disk is external FW800 raid. Editing a 300 dpi 8x10" image is painful after a few minutes. I edit a layer mask and everything goes well *until* I take the pen off the tablet - it's as if PS will only let me do one thing, then it has to stop and think about it for 30 seconds before I can do anything else. The weird thing is, if I apple+tab, change to finder, then back, PS seems to sort of click back into gear (sometimes). Looking at activity monitor, PS goes to 99.4% when ever I do *anything*. One single action, eraser, clone, pen etc. and up goes the CPU. Wait 30 secs and back down to 6%. very frustrating indeed, esp when Adobe seem to be ignoring the issue. Luckily I still have CS2 on a powerbook, so I can still get on. 17” Macbook Pro duo 2.93 intel. 4G ram. Leopard. Latest updates of everything. Scratch disk is external FW800 raid.

And I avoid the top-most version of any tool, and let other guys do the "public beta" of that version. I have some tools that are 10, even 15 years old and still work perfectly, and with an amazing speed on current hardware (which I do not update too much, either).
