AlainP Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 After having experienced a problem I made the following test... Open raw image, make a few adjustments and then click "Develop", a few seconds go by and it opens in Photo persona. So far so good... Used the Defringe filter from the top drop down menu (destructive), it works very well, then "Flatten image" took approx 1.5 seconds. Same operation but then used the "Live Filter" Defringe. Worked fine but took a little longer. Then "Flatten Image".... CPU goes to 95%, memory goes to almost 3 GB and it seems like a never ending operation, I waited almost 10 minutes. All I can do is to End Photo via Task Manager. Repeated the experience a few times.... always same results. -- Window 11 - 32 gb - Intel I7 - 8700 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 -- iPad Pro 2020 - 12,9 - 256 gb - Apple Pencil 2 -- iPad 9th gen 256 gb - Apple Pencil 1 -- Macbook Air 15" - Mac mini M2-Pro - 16 gb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_K Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Hi AlainP I would expect the live filter to take longer is it is constantly updating it's preview and does take a bit more processing power. With the destructive filter, the filter applied directly to the layer so flattening the image doesn't really do anything (unless you added other layers before this). With the live filter layer there is actually something to flatten so I would expect it to use more of the processor. Although I would would have expected it to take far less than 10 minutes!
