Why Photoshop become more bigger in my RAM?

My laptop Windows 8.1 has a processor Core i5 and 8 GB of RAM.  My 1 TB harddrive has about 75 GB of free space. I have suffered from severe downturns computer each time I use Photoshop (currently CC 2015 even if this also happened before with CC 2014).

Today, I tried an experiment.  I started the Task Manager and had a look at the amount of RAM occupied by Photoshop - it was 260MO without open files.

After I had opened two image 25 MB RAW files in Adobe Camera Raw Photoshop occupy 760 MB, from which I infer that Adobe Camera Raw itself is some 450 MB.

I subsequently opened on 8 or 9 RAW images consecutively. Each time, I transformed the image in Adobe Camera Raw, and then open the image in Photoshop itself (how, I'm sure you know, ACR closes). After a few other treatment/edition, I recorded each image in jpeg format and then it closed before opening the next image in ACR.

Whenever I close a file, I took another glance in the Task Manager and size of memory each time Photoshop had grown up. The progression went something like: 760 MB, 796 MB, 835MB, 1106MB... until, after the images above 8 or 9, Photoshop (with no open files and closed ACR) stood at 1138 MB - four times its original size to launch!

I closed Photoshop and then started again, after which the task manager the spokesperson it 259 MB again.

You are able to explain it, please?   More importantly, is it possible I can stop Photoshop becoming bigger and bigger until - after a few hours of work - it slows down my computer to the point where a single plant can take a couple of minutes or more to process.

Any help would be much appreciated.

The new Alt release RAM and scratch disk should be used as a last resort and may cause more problems. If you have a lot of info on your drive to work, it can take a long time to free up this space and reallocate the data that are used to 100 GB. Then, when you reopen the first large document, it will take longer that the PS should allocate new space for her.

    Thanks for your thoughtful response. Right now, the team is working with the idea that it has to do with what color the image is the profile and what color profile using the Apple iOS products. I'll let you know soon I hear more.

  • How to make a text becomes more visible?

    Maybe I didn't use google much, but I can't find anything in the internet this might solve my question.

    Basically, I want to work with a white background, where a text is that becomes more visible on more it approximates rained from the lower part. The tricky thing is, it's for a Web site, then it must be responsive to smartphones or tablets for example (first idea: put the white at the front bottom layer as it makes the text more visible/invisible?). Any ideas how to fix? It would be good to know.

    I don't know what that means "be sensitive to smartphones or tablets.  People put the complex graphics on these things all the time.  They have unprecedented power.

    Photoshop can help you to do what you describe.  What you want is not more complex than to put a gradient in a layer mask to create partial transparency.  You could have the text of discoloration (in the form of a chart) or a solid color fill of discoloration that overlap text rendered by a browser.

    Just a few graphic ideas...

    Save as a PNG-24 format to get partial transparency which can make a browser.

  • AdressBookSourceSync uses permanently more 1 GB of RAM

    Hi all

    AdressBookSourceSync uses more 1 GB of Ram on my MacBookPro, running on EL captain in 2013.

    Questions that I could find on this forum refer all to OS X Versions and I have been unable to solve this problem.

    Thank you

    Kind regards

    Felix

    Please test after taking each of the steps that you have not already tried it. Back up the data before you start.

    Step 1

    Leave the address book or Contacts application runs.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select this option:

    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBookSourceSync

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

    of the contextual menu.*, a file must open with a selected item. Move selected item to the trash.

    Repeat with each of these lines:

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AddressBook
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.AddressBook.ContactsAccountsService

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    Step 2

    If you use iCloud, uncheck that box Contacts in the iCloud preferences window. Press return to confirm, or click on store on Mac in the dialog box that opens.

    If you synchronize contacts with other network services, disable synchronization in the preferences window accounts Internet.

    Step 3

    This step applies only if you can launch Contacts. In the list of groups on the left side of the Contacts window, select all on my Mac. If this group does exist or is empty, skip this step. Otherwise, in the menu bar, select

    Exporting files ▹... ▹ Contacts Archives...

    Save archive exported to the desktop.

    Step 4

    Exit Contacts runs. Reveal the next item in the Finder as you did in step 1:

    ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook

    If you know when the problem started, and you can restore this folder from a previous backup without losing the contacts, make and test. Otherwise, move the folder to the desktop, leaving the window open for now.

    Step 5

    Launch Contacts. Your contacts and groups will be gone. If you followed step 3, and then double-click the file created in step and confirm that you want to import from it. Your contacts and groups reappear.

    Step 6

    If you followed step 2, reverse it. Test. If the problem is resolved, delete the address book folder and the file to archive on the desktop, and then close the open folder window.

    Otherwise, exit Contacts again and put the folder AddressBook back where he was, by crushing the newest that will have been created in its place.

    Step 7

    Back to step 3, but this time choose export vCard... in the menu export. Continue as in steps 4 to 6. All contacts must be preserved, but you may lose some metadata such as membership in a group.

    Since the installation of El Capitan, my streaming to my Audioengine DAC D2 cut after 12 minutes (the default duration of sleep). It will restart by pressing the space bar. When I change the duration of sleep, the cut outs are becoming more frequent and intermittent. Help?

    I checked the wifi and changed frequency (new modem, frequency change made no difference). The Board battery seems fine - all updates well. My computer is an iMac (2011), 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, with a new AMD Radeon graphics card. I recently installed a State strong 1 TB SATA drive and fitted with a LaCie Porsche 4 to USB for backup and a 4TB disk storage RAID LaCie drive.

    I'm frustrated, having to come in my computer since my living room every 12 minutes to continue to listen to Spotify on my stereo system.

    My guess is there a bug in the software of sleep in El Capitan, which disrupts his (I've tried different USB ports connect the Audioengine sender and same thing).

    The oldest is compared to newer operating systems, it is less likely to work.  If you have been happy with the help of Photoshop 7 then you should be happy with the old operating system as well.  Your options are either to return to a system that supports your software or to buy new software to go with the new system.  CS6 products are still selling as far as I know.  In addition, your only option is to subscribe to the cloud of Creative for Photoshop CC.
