I have my 2012 Mac mini i7-quad core @ 2.3Ghz @1T SSD right here too. The new 2018-2019 mini runs rings around it too … The old one tested the same way takes about 7.5 seconds per raw file conversion and output compared to the new one at just about 2 seconds, averaged. And the editing experience

I dont have any macs for desktop use. Lightroom on win10 is resource hungry. I just wanted to mention that installing a moderate gpu with more than average memory is a good idea. I cant give benchmark numbers. Develop mode feels much faster. Ps the intel gpu only uses shared memory on pc's no idea

Interesting. My system is an Apple Mac mini (2018-2019 version) running latest macOS (Catalina 10.15.5). It has a 3.2GHz Intel i7-6 core processor and 32G RAM, and an Intel UHD Graphics 630 display driver with 1536 MB on-board RAM and a 1T SSD. Catalogs and data are all on an external USB-3.1

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

That's more or less what I have (32 Gb but lightroom never goes beyond 16 Gb on my system). If you search lightroom forums they claim any GPU should be fast enough. A cheap 1050ti and the 4Gb GPU memory makes the difference in develop mode. I don't see high GPU usage. The fun part is my gigabyte ve

Lightroom is indeed requiring a lot of RAM. My new PC got 16 GB RAM and LR on SSD, but only an integrated GPU on Intel i7. I'm most happy with the speed of LR now, though the bottleneck is the external 6 TB harddisk on which I'm downloading my photos. Henk Op 2020-07-07 om 20:50 schreef Toine

I found a Loupedeck+ on our local ebay. Nice gadget but it doesn't play nice if Lightroom is slow. So how to speed upgrade lightroom? RAM, CPU, SSD isn't the latest and greatest but enough and paying 1000 euros for a 2x speed improvement... So I made a gamble and searched on our local ebay and foun
