Olli O Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Why is the performance dropping with each update? I have a really fast Workstation (RTX 4090, 128gb ram... all maxed out) but working with more than 2-3 Artboards is super slow. Every click takes about half a second. No realtime feeling like in V1. And the annoying pink fadeout-outline makes it feel even slower (Can i deactivate this "feature"?) Same for my Laptop with 64bg, rtx 3080 so its likly not a problem with my PC I reinstalled the app several times. No change I deactivated Open CL acceleration. No change Really sad. Loved it Quote

Dan C Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Hi @Olli O, I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with performance within Affinity. Firstly, I'd recommend ensuring that your GPU drivers are fully up to date, directly from the manufacturers website as outdated drivers can cause performance issues within Affinity apps. Secondly, if your PC has both an iGPU and dGPU, I'd recommend ensuring that Affinity is using only the dGPU through Windows Settings, as outlined here - Finally, what size are your Artboards in your document, and what tools/workflow are you using when these issues occur? Many thanks in advance Quote
Olli O Posted April 21, 2023 Author Posted April 21, 2023 Hi Dan, thx for the reply. I always have the newest nvidia studiodriver installed loaded via GeforceExperience. Never gamedriver. (Have to use studiodriver because of Cinema4 > Octane) Of course i have selected the dGpu under settings > performance Mostly my documents contain 4-8 Artboards with about 2000 x 5000px, some 72dpi Images, Text, Boxes.. nothing crazy, no hardcore Vectorjuice Quote
Dan C Posted April 21, 2023 Posted April 21, 2023 Thanks for confirming that for me! Would you be willing to upload a copy of one of these .afdesign files which shows this issue so that I can investigate further here? You can upload the file to the below link - https://www.dropbox.com/request/Atb4qU5381iM2t73O5vh Once uploaded, please reply here to let me know. Can you also please confirm what CPU your system(s) are using? Many thanks once again Quote
