Hello,
I've been using Affinity since version 0.9, and had no issues so far.
Recently, especially with the arrival of the latest V 1.10, the Publisher and Designer software (I don't use much Photo) have encountered quite unbearable slowness.
If only to copy/drag a text block already... it's really slow.
The apps are installed by default on my system disk, in Windows 10 64, and on a 500 GB SSD.
Nothing else is running in the background.
Here is my config:
- Intel Core i7-3770K
- 2 x 8GB (16GB) DDR3 1800MHz
- NVidia RTX 3060 OC graphics card - 12GB
Precision, my system was recently reinstalled following the purchase of the RTX (I still had a GTX 1660 - 6GB a few months ago)... But it is therefore much cleaner and more powerful than before and all the superfluous has been cleared.
Being more "gamer" needless to say that my computer runs the latest hits of the year without difficulty and that no other software (Blender, FreeCAD, Fusion 360, etc.) is a problem.
Previously I used the Adobe CC 2020 suite, which I stopped subscribing to switch to Affinity at the end of 2020... Again, I had no problem with the Adobe suite and everything was running smoothly even with heavy files and 3 software open in parallel...
So that makes me wonder... :/
I've tried reinstalling, resetting to defaults, disabling or enabling hardware acceleration, changing RAM limit values, etc.
Nothing to do.
Is this a problem with this version? Is there an update planned in this case?
Are there other parameters to look at?
Everything is in vector on my current job and nothing very crazy apart from some shadow effects on some layers.
To be precise, I am a graphic designer in a printing company... and we have recently been using Affinity on iMacs, without any latency problems.
So I think there must be a problem with my install, my settings, or something else...
Finally, additional question. : Is it possible to set up dedicated scratch disks for Affinity? How could we do it for Adobe?
I can't find any option that goes in this direction... :/
Thanks in advance for your help and/or ideas.
