8 GB of total ram needs to be much more like 16 even better 32. If all else fails try disabling GPU in LR Preferences.ДЄ few more thoughts, some repeated from above.ДЎ.

Check graphics card drivers are latest - and also check for net chatter about the latest drivers and any known issues!Д. SSD: Check free space - 50% free good - less than 25% less than optimalД¬. Therefore you may want to consider a separate SSD for PS scratch disk dutiesД«. AFAIK, LR does not use scratch disk this is only for PS - if you have dedicated a large scratch disk for PS then this may have an impact on performance. Some general comments from what you have described so far.ДЄ. Having less than 25% of disk space available is likely to slow down most applications, LR particularly. Coupled to the above the Disk should have ideally 50% free space. As much RAM as you can fit will help with speed. Not sure exactly how much has changed in LR CC from my current version of LR 5.7 or even if the slowdown is a result of a setting in your current LR install, but generally there are a few things that you can do regarding hardware that should have an effect on performance.ДЎ.

Later this year, IвЂ™m building a new PC mainly for post-processing, so if something completely else than what I thought above could work, please feel free to suggest other options as well.

Does this logic apply?Дў) If the operating system (Windows 10) or Lightroom (CC) isnвЂ™t for some reason able to benefit from that much of RAM, would a possible workaround be installing a super fast SSD drive, such as the new Samsung 950 Pro M.2 NVMe, so that the by using that as a scratch disk the writing speed would simply be multiple times faster than with my current 4-year-old SSD drive? What I described above has lead to me to two possible solutions:ДЎ) By increasing the amount of RAM from my current 8Gb to, say, 32Gb I could speed up these processes significantly, assuming that the scratch disk wouldnвЂ™t have to be used at all. From this, IвЂ™ve concluded that perhaps the bottle neck currently is the speed of the scratch disk.

Sometimes, when stitching, say, more than 7 images as a panorama, I run out of space on the SSD and Lightroom is unable to complete the final image. I run Lightroom from my SSD drive, on which I only have about 30Gb free space. Of course, the speed depends on how many files IвЂ™m merging as an HDR file or stitching as a panorama, but typically we are talking about anything from a couple of minutes to 15 minutes (including both creating the preview and the actual end result).ДЇrom what IвЂ™ve understood, both HDR merging and stitching panoramas are memory intensive processes. The problem currently is that the process takes a lot of time. I merge the photos as an HDR dng file in Lightroom and also stitch the panoramas from the Nikon D800 raw files or from the dng files (in case of HDR panoramas) in Lightroom. As an enthusiast travel photographer I do a lot of HDR, panoramas and HDR panoramas.
