Lightroom: Catalog Speed
My first article on Lightroom was: Lightroom: Slow As Molasses Or Lightning Fast?.
I did some further testing with actual numbers: What's Lightroom's speed when browsing the same 100 photos of the same catalog with all these photos after having generated the 1:1 preview:
Mode Time % slower Library @ fit setting 1 mn 42s 0% Library @ fill setting 1 mn 45s 3% Library @ 1:1 setting 3 mn 53s 129% Develop @ fit setting 5 mn 11s 205% Develop @ fill setting 5 mn 12s 206% Develop @ 1:1 setting 6 mn 04s 257%
Conclusion:
- Do your browse of the catalog in the library module.
- Generate the 1:1 previews during the import.
If I didn't generate the 1:1 previews during the import, or would have deleted the 1:1 previews, browsing at the fill setting and/or the 1:1 preview setting would have been about 5 times slower.
