Hi Bruce - thanks for the suggestions: I'm using just over 9GB of scratch space on a separate drive, which is in the mid-range of what PS is recommending. I'm going to switch through the GPU options to see what effect each has, starting with it disabled.

Try adding more scratch space. You can configure multiple drives to supply Ps swap. Try playing with the GPU acceleration options. I'd first try disabling it completely to see the effects. BTW, it's working fine for me on a 5K iMac. Ps version 21.0.3. Good luck! On Fri, Apr 3, 2020 at 10:16 PM <[email protected]> wrote: > > Last few days PSCC has become unusable.
