Illustrator CS4 - Performance issues

I'm about to reinstall AICS2 again. It seems that CS4 has the same performance as CS3 had issues when I create a complex illustration. I have 12 GB of memory on my Quad G5 with OS 10.4.11. I attributed to 200 GB on a separate disk from Scratch. It is almost impossible to use once my file size reaches a certain point.

Does anyone know how to speed things up? I was wondering if I start deleting plug-ins?

Linda,

Did you do a save as and more writing the file? Given that I went to PDF it has the bad habit of PDF to keep the history in a separate part of the file and is not clear, until you do save as. If you have placed and replaced a lot of images, and save the file (Cmd-S) several times with different images, copies of previews are saved in this story. A few times I can get the files to drop half as much as the size of the file by Save as.

  • Illustrator CS4 in Snow Leopard issues

    I have a logo file that I created in Illustrator CS4 on an iMac under Snow Leopard, and it does not display some of the text layers on the registration for the web or as an Illustrator CS3 file or copy and paste in Photoshop CS4. Basically, text layers are standard using Adobe Garamond Pro (regular and italic) fonts and white text on black background. In the original file, the two lines of text look good but when I try to register using one of the other methods above I no longer see the 2nd line of text. So, indeed I can't create the JPEG or GIF that I need this logo. Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you

    Maybe not a cs4/snow leopard issue but an overlay?

    If anyone has had this problem and don't know a solution? I rebooted the system, update CS4, windows update, update of the graphics driver

    Thanks in advance.

    Jami.

    I think it was the conflict any more as a plug-in hardware.

    However if she just started to happen it might be something to do with a setting in either the drivers of the card or Illustrator or the system

    You can try toreset your settings by pressing control, alt, and shift keys (all 3 together) when you start Illustrator.

    That resets the settings or you can move or delete the settings folder if it does not help, sometimes, something else in the folder is damaged.

    This may also be a conflict with a policy, if you have installed or updated software up-to-date recentlyI suspect this software or the police. Do you have free fonts recently used in a document?

    Here's how you can find and remove the settings foder

    1. quit Illustrator.
    2. rename the AIPrefs file (for example, to AIPrefs.old) user / AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings(user)folder.
    3. launch Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.

    4. you can also just trash this record if the new preferences work very well. Also, if this does not work then move the entire Adobe Illustrator CS3 settings folder to another location like your desktop for temporary storage Illustrator will create a new folder with all the elements required in the folder and the settings will be cool by default.

    However, if there is a conflict or hardware issues this will probably not help.

    If you do not find the to this place, do a search for it.

    Also, if you have moved the computer or installed any hardware in your office could be map is in place is more well, the card isn't quite right or the display could be funny or goes funny. But I do not.

  • Illustrator CS4 look pixelated vectors

    As I reinstalled Illustrator CS4 in my computer, I noticed that look pixelated vectors, it drives me crazy!
    Some people say that I should reinstall it again but I don't know if it's the best solution.

    This happened to someone else? Is one knows how to fix this?

    Thanks for your help

    I am pleased that you responded so obviously sincere kind. I think that then it could be one of several issues such as the impression that something has changed, but they don't have or something has been updated is originally a kind of distortion on your scree we and your screen capture software can not see or certain Dynamics undetected is at work here. Might even be eyestrain.

    If you find that it is not so bad as you said then I think you should not think for awhile, sometimes I my screen looks weird and it's the same as it has always been so maybe just one thing in mind.

  • HP Elitebook 8570p - Windows XP USB very slow and the transfer rate performance issues.

    Hello. I was wondering if anyone else knows some performance issues with the HP Elitebook 8570p and Windows XP Pro - SP3.

    I get a VERY slow start, general poor performance (waiting time when opening files and programs).

    I asked to burn in tests that show that everything is good.

    USB transfer rates are VERY slow (tried all ports of a Seagate FreeAgent USB drive, which works fine on other laptops etc.) for example a 30-minute transfer a 7gig single file of the USB HD on the desktop. Only 3 minutes to do the same on another laptop.

    I think there are problems with the drivers, like Windows 7 works very well and does boot from a bootable USB.

    USB transfer rate are also good when starting from a Windows boot environment.

    I installed HP SoftPaq Download Manager, and all the drivers are up to date.

    Hello:

    I think outside of the box here... Select the Intel (r) 7 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller instead.

    If it does not, I raise the white flag.

  • Performance issues when coming out of sleep

    I recently built a gaming PC. On Christmas day, I finished putting the thing together. It has an Intel i7-4790 CPU running Intel HD Graphics, 8 GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM, an Asus Z97 - A Mobo and a 2 terabyte Seagate HDD. I installed Windows and put everything in place. Then a week later, my MSI GTX 970 arrived in the mail.

    So, I take the thing to sleep and decreases the performance of the whole thing. Videos YouTube stutter, simple as games fight of World of Tanks to run at its usual rate of 60 fps. To avoid this, I simply restart my comp and then it works fine. performance is back to normal.

    A few weeks, Windows gave me a message on one of the Nvidia drivers causing performance issues when you wake up from sleep. I don't think a lot of it and rejected it. I'll try to reinstall all my Nvidia drivers. I uninstall the Intel HD graphics driver a few days ago and has not changed anything. I would appreciate an answer to this problem because I would like to continue to use the "sleep mode" because it consumes less energy and prolongs the life of my case of LED. Thank you!

    Howdee new BearPup, yes I'm under W764 Bit version so I can run AfterEffects.
    The error message is as follows - "Adobe Illustrator - no response from plotter. Check if the plotter is in remote mode"- of course, it is always - I was on the site of Mimaki and downloaded... "Vector/raster driver version 2.2 s 0023v 22. exe (484KB))" and tried all possible ways to make it work - it just won't! So on Monday I'll ring Mimaki in NSW Oz 02-4272-3663 and I have a little chat - the next step, I'll probably send the plotter to them for a start and service - what can I do else?

  • Smartphone blackBerry Storm performance issues (and suggestions)

    I want to start and say that I don't like my phone.  When it works (which is most of the time), it works fine.

    But there are certainly problems of software.  As a software engineer, the OS has some memory serious management problems.  This seems to cause most of the problems I'm having with the phone.  I'm running the latest Verizon S/W (v4.7.0.148).

    Problem #1:

    I am a paranoid person.  There are a lot of personal information on my phone, I have currently international calls helped that I need this feature.  So to protect me my phone is locked when it is the case or after a period of inactivity time.  It is a good practice.  Part of the draw to the fate of the Blackberry is the security that you can configure on the device (I'm not paranoid enough to allow all the protections of encryption - yet).  Problem of the storm is that it can take 1 to 5 minutes to get the phone unlocked when unholstering.  It is not an exaggeration.  As the performance of the memory gets worse, time takes more time.  If I had to make an emergency call, it could be the difference between life and death.  5 minutes is a long time to wait to call 911.  This must be corrected!

    Problem #2:

    The phone must be "reset" once a day to remember "lost."  It is just poor programming.  I don't know if this problem of BB OS or Apps I'm running, but in both cases, this isn't fair.  After the reboot if I go to the display of memory under options I could have about 3-5 MB of free memory.  After a few hours of use, this will almost always '0 '.  I installed MemoryUp Pro, which seems to have extended the period of time between the battery grips, but I still don't think we should ask all owners of BB Storm to pull there battery once a day.  The other answer I get is "do not run so many Apps.  I get all my applications when finished.  Are the only ones that I continue to turn: Blackberry Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk and Google Maps (Latitude).  Other applications running, you can't get out (phone, browser).  I tried doesn't work is not the 'optional' tricks and performance has not really much better.

    Problem #3:

    Missed calls.  This is probably related to problems of memory above, but if the storm can be used as a phone, then I should buy something else.  Although the occurrence of this problem has gone down because I installed MemoryUp Pro and perform the reset once a day, sometimes still about 1 to 5 times.  It takes so long for the phone to 'wake up' when a call comes in (especially if it is holstered), at the time where I hit "Answer", a call has been Messaging voice or even worse, the phone doesn't ring at all.  All I get is a notification of appeal lacks the 'unknown number '.

    Problem #4:

    Battery performance could be improved.  The battery that comes with the storm has about 24 hours on 24 with the Radio and Bluetooth.  Really, this isn't a problem if you know it.  I solved the problem by buying a 2700 mAh battery for extended life of BoxWave I use when traveling.  Makes the storm bit bulky, it will give me 2-3 days of life.  I don't know how this could be improved if not

    I hope that the developers of RIM are trying to solve some of these performance issues.  Certain tasks should be a higher priority as they seem to have (like phone & Unlock).

  • Performance issues with large number of nodes

    I am creating an application to display graphics (large), for example:

    graph.png

    But I ran into some performance issues, even for a relatively small number of nodes in the scene graph (+-2000 in the picture above). The graph is built, step by step, adding circles and paths to a StackPane. Circles and paths can be semi-transparant. For a small number of nodes, I get a solid 60 FPS, but this decreases over time to about 5 frames per second. As soon as I stop adding new nodes, the framerate shoot again up to 60 images per second. The framerate drop even when all the nodes are outside the viewport.

    My questions are:

    * Is Platform.runLater () call to 2000 times a minute too?

    * This might just be a problem with my graphics card? (I have an Intel HD Graphics 3000)
    * JavaFX pulse recorder says such things, are there meaningful information in that I'm missing?

    Basically, try some optimization of performance ranging from the simple to the complex.   Each of the changes below may provide you with an increase in performance.  Some will probably increase performance much more that others (depending on where is the real bottleneck).  I would probably start by replace the paths to the lines and reduce the number of Platform.runLater calls (as adding nodes that fall within the viewport can be difficult only).

    > The framerate drop even when all the nodes are outside the viewport.

    Place the nodes in the graph, which fall inside the viewport.

    > Is Platform.runLater () call to 2000 times a minute too?

    Yes, there is no reason to call it more than 60 times a minute when the framerate of JavaFX is capped at 60 frames per second by default.

    > This might just be a problem with my graphics card? (I have an Intel HD Graphics 3000)

    Yes, it's a graphics system relatively low-end.  But, look at the comment of developer below - your CPU and choice of graphic primitives can also affect rendering speed.

    > Adding circles and the paths to a StackPane

    You don't need a StackPane to this, a group is a container easier and probably better.

    > may be semi-transparant

    Remove transparency * may * cause acceleration.

    https://JavaFX-JIRA.Kenai.com/browse/RT-20405 : improve the rendering of path performance

    Maybe if you use lines rather than the paths, performance might improve.

    A comment by a developer on this performance tweak application is:

    «It is quite normal for applications that use arbitrary paths (if the node path objects, SVGPath, polyline, or polygon) because these paths are rendered in software.» As card circle, Ellipse, line and Rectangle very primitive forms easily to the operations that can be performed entirely on the GPU, which makes them essentially cheap. There is no need to compare the rendering of a complicated shape for rendering of simple primitives for this reason. »

    ----

    Setting the cache indicators can help, but probably only if you animate nodes.

    ----

    Present level of detail of your graph functionality so a chart with zoom out is not make as many nodes as a part of zoomed in.

    ----

    You run any code important calculation on the JavaFX application thread that could stall it?

    Can make you available a ftom so that others can reproduce your problems?

  • Management performance issues and huge catalog

    I shoot architecture and real estate. I turn every day hundreds of frames and my current catalog becomes huge. I'm also starting to see a huge performance hit recently. Last night I just changed until 03:30 because LR would take some time as 20 seconds to perform a single task (like changing a slide or photo of the flag). A lot of time spinning beach ball. I have an external hard drive which I support to locally.

    What I was wondering is if I have everything except the most recent project files copy the disk external then keep it unplugged when I WIP edition if it would help performance issues?

    MacBook Pro (10.9.5) and LR CC running. I optimized my catalog and I also have a Cocktail for Mac running on my system to clean the memory, etc.

    Other ideas of huge catalogs management would be useful. I prefer not to make a new catalog for each customer that I shoot several each day and passing backward between catalog every day would be a pain in the thigh.

    Hi KristianWalker,

    Have you tried to increase/purge your Cache? See How to improve and accelerate the performance of Photoshop Lightroom for more ways to optimize Lightroom.
