Maybe because i have a 4k monitor which needs more gpu power. Only in develop mode i can notice gpu acceleration and gpu usage. 4K would also explain why 4gb gpu memory has the biggest speed impact. My i7 also has a small gpu and it could barely handle 4K. Installed the cheapest nvidia I could find, GT 1030, to enable 4K.
Loupedesk is made for lightroom. It needs a lot of learning and at the moment I would be faster without. Its simply more fun.
