just to add…I also had to back off of LR2.2 to 2.1. Didn’t notice much improvement in speed. Stability was degraded, couldn’t go more than a couple of hours without a freeze. The main item was exporting raws. Could not get thru more than 100 without a lockup. Tryed 3 times.

Being a wedding shooter and processing several hundred at a time, this took down.

Constand cashing… I’m just filling up my memorycards at the moment, instead of downloading the pictures to my comp, as lr works so damn bad

2.2 constantly crashed for minimal speeed gain. I’ll take the stable one anytime. Uninstalled 2.2 and welcomed back 2.1

Installed LR2.2 on a XP-2gb ram. LR1 to 2.1 was one of the most stable and productive system I had to date. Now I have constant crashes. Memory use grows from .4 to about 1gb with and very slow in rendering for the second monitor. Is this something to do with the original authors moving to another company?

I installed LR 2.2 on my vista 64. I have cs3. In LR I try to edit on Photoshop and when done i hot save. Then PS writes the new file to disk. This is happening with JPEG. Any clues…?

Very dissapointed to see that adobe have not fixed a bug that drives me mad – which is:
if you export to a 16 bit tiff and then run an action in photoshop to save a folder of files to jpeg any photo you have developed that you used the adjustment brush on will stop the action, you then have to take that photo out of the folder and repeat the action – if their is another such photo in the folder you have to repeat the process again -
this has wasted me so much time
really hope they fix this soon!

Matt, thanks for everything. Here’s an FYI – please pass on to Adobe as appropriate.

LR 2.2 Problem

Just updated to LR 2.2 this afternoon and was at first pleased with the brush improvement – until I turned on automask. LR 2.2 has locked up twice (both times I’ve tried to use it this p.m.) Required shutting down LR (losing edits) and relaunching. One other time LR 2.2 crashed and shut down.

I rebooted my PC after the upgrade and restarted again after the first lockup.

It is again locked up with the hourglass and I will again lose my edits which is no big deal in this particular instance but obviously can’t go on doing this.

Platform: Dell XPS 630, XP Pro, Quad processors, 4 GB RAM, nVidia GeForce 8800 GT.

Thanks again,
Bill

Just installed version 2.2 and al works like a charm! I’m using vista 32bit and have no memory leaks or issues whatsoever. But I can imagine that running Lightroom on a 1 gb vista system may become problematic. Especially the brush is *very* memory hungry, but that’s fine with me as long as the lag is gone. And it is.

Well done Adobe!

Upgraded yesterday – pretty much straight away hit problems. Graduated filter is much slower than previously, also in Develop Module I keep getting a message saying ‘an unknown error occurred’ whenever I click on a thumbnail. Great…another failed upgrade from Adobe.

Installed 2.2 this morning into 2.1 on Intel Mac with OS x 10.5.5 and have used all day. Importing from 40d,50d, and 5d MarkII and exporting, developing and printing. Presets work very well! Be sure you are looking at a raw picture to see presets! CS 4 upgraded to 5.2 as well. I think I will wait to install OS X 10.5.6 for a week or so. I normally do wait 7-10 days before installing major updates——-a hold over from being burnt with Microsoft updates i guess.
