j.strackbein Posted August 6, 2021 Posted August 6, 2021 running Desinger on an 8-core I9 MacBookPro, 64GB, 8GB graphic card, MacOS 10.15.7 having a document with few thousand (1000-2000?) objects so far, I am sad to say I personaly can not see that the rendering while zooming in/out is 10x faster in version 1.10.. I mean still a great piece of software, no doubt. first video is 1.9.3, second same file on 1.10.0 ad_1.9.3.mp4 ad_1.10.0.mp4 designerPIX 1 Quote
Staff Leigh Posted August 6, 2021 Staff Posted August 6, 2021 Thanks for your feedback j.strackbein. Is it possible to take a screenshot of Preferences > Performance for me? Quote
Staff Leigh Posted August 6, 2021 Staff Posted August 6, 2021 Thanks. I will see what I can find out from our developers. Quote
Staff Leigh Posted August 11, 2021 Staff Posted August 11, 2021 Sorry for the delay in replying. Are you able to provide me with a screenshot of your benchmark results from both 1.9.2 and 1.10? You can do this by opening the app and going to Help > Benchmark (without a document open) Quote
j.strackbein Posted August 11, 2021 Author Posted August 11, 2021 no problem But I do not have help>benchmark in Designer 1.10 nor in 1.9, I have this menue item just in Photo.. Quote
Staff Leigh Posted August 12, 2021 Staff Posted August 12, 2021 Doh, sorry. Are you able to send me the document you used in your videos so that I can see how it performs for me? If you could send me the benchmarks from both versions of Photo that would be great but I understand if don't want to do that. Quote
j.strackbein Posted August 13, 2021 Author Posted August 13, 2021 Why is the benchmark only available in Photo and not in Designer? And is there any possibility to see the numbers of layers, elements.. (meta infos) about a file? Running the benchmark several times, some of the values differ +-10%, specially the raster (multi GPU) and combined (multiple GPUs) values. I have closed all other programs during the test, only Photo was open. As you can see there is no difference between 1.9.7 and 1.10.0, some values are even higher in 1.9 (in certains runs). I could provide you with a link to the file which I have used for the testing (via pm), but even if is faster on your machine it will not explain why there is no difference on my machine.. do you have any testfiles which I could run? For me it feels like just seeing the splash screen from 1.10 but underneath is still 1.9... Quote

j.strackbein Posted August 13, 2021 Author Posted August 13, 2021 this is not an option, its on MacOS not Windows.. Quote
km.au Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 I'm not sure but publisher with hundreds of pages is a snap now, def 10x faster there so may be only in particular cases Quote

I have done the benchmark test with no document open as suggested. There is no major difference between the two version on my machine or the benchmark is wrong (and therefore useless) The promo video 4 weeks ago showing the beta performance boost with 600.000 layers was very very promising, but if I can not see any difference with 2000 layers, I guess it will not getting better if I add another 598.000 I would think it is normal daily usage to add thousand of layers and zooming in and out while working, I would not agree that this is a particular or very special case. km.au 1 Quote
Arceom Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 I'd like to know why is the performance better in Photo Beta than in the release version, its been like this from 1.8.x; I've been forced to work with the beta version of Photo since the release version is always slower and crashes constantly.

j.strackbein Posted August 17, 2021 Author Posted August 17, 2021 how can I missunderstand that video.. in the video everything is smooth without any lag while zooming and moving around, I have 2000+ layers and I experience a clear lag and no boost..nothing. Its not the question that it is not a great piece of software, I love it, I was just wondering why I can not see any difference. 10 times faster was just a number, could be any factor, but there is no visible improvment at all. Benchmark is telling the same story. If it is faster with 600.000 layers, it should be warp speed with <10.000.. or ? Do you think I have to add another 100.000 or more before I notice something? sounds not logical to me Quote
j.strackbein Posted August 18, 2021 Author Posted August 18, 2021 ok, sorry then I have missunderstood you Quote
