Slow opening document

[ashf]

I feel opening a document quite slow compared to the previous PC I used and it's the same in both V1 and V2.
This is not only with RAW files but any file types such as jpg/png.

The new PC and the old PC has the same OS(Win 10 22H2).
Disabling OpenCL doesn't affect this problem.

hardware spec: Core i5 8500 w/o dGPU / 24GB RAM / 1TB NVMe SSD

It's strange.
Only opening the first document is slow.

How slow are we talking for say, a standard 24MP image? From click, it takes about a second on my machine. From a cold start it did seem to be closer to 2 seconds for me.

An image that's 1080p takes more than 5 sec at first loading.
Second loading or later is fine I think.

Waiting after the startup doesn't matter.

This problem still remains in V2.2.

It seems that Photo takes longer than Designer/Publisher on loading the first file for some reason.
Though Designer/Publisher is still somewhat slow on loading the first file.
I can say Photo is abnormal for sure.

Loading 1920x1080 jpg

First file:
Photo: 8 sec
Designer/Publisher: 3 sec

Second file and later:
Photo: 1 sec or less
Designer/Publisher: 1 sec or less

P.S. waiting after opening Affinity does not affect this problem.
So it's not caused by the initialization process of Affinity.

Ok. I got something this time.
When I disable OpenCL, the loading time is reduced to 2-3 sec.
It was not related when I posted this topic though.

It's a common Intel iGPU(UHD 630).  shouldn't be a trouble, should it?

I have installed the latest version of driver got from the Intel site.
Result is the same.
