Hello Could you please give me some advice on speeding up Bridge on my machine? I suspect a faster disk would help, but are there any settings I could try first?
Thanks Fred. Bridge performance is improved as your file system is traversed. Meaning as Bridge finds things, it caches them. The more things your searches find that have been cached, the better the speed will be overall. This means, things really slow when you first get started, but improve over time.
In down time, say overnights Other notes XMP tags are written into the media files themselves when it can. I agree Lightroom's cataloging sucks. I use Bridge for organizing and Capture One for raw conversion. Haven't noticed anything slow about Bridge though. Doug Dolde www. Redcrown Sr. Member Online Posts: However, in those cases you can usually see Bridge racking up a lot of CPU. One thing to try is to nuke the cache, and do it outside of Bridge.
With Bridge shut down, find the Bridge cache, copy it somewhere if you want, then delete it entirely using the OS utilities. Then launch Bridge, and if possible, quickly point it at some folder with a small number of images.
If that works OK, then start navigating to folders with more images and see if it keeps up. I remember once, years ago, someone posted about a similar problem. After several responses and queries, it turned out he had Bridge pointed at a folder with over 5, images. To disable firewall software, contact your system administrator. The Folders panel can cause slowdowns when Adobe Bridge starts. Disable the Folders panel if you do not use it.
The Preview and Metadata panels use resources when generating thumbnails and when you navigate image content. If you don't use them, turn them off. Adobe Bridge can slow down when processing large files. By default, Adobe Bridge automatically processes thumbnails up to files MB.
You can reduce this file size in Preferences. Sometimes if you navigate to a different folder while Adobe Bridge is generating thumbnails for images in the current folder, Adobe Bridge can freeze or crash. Before you restart Adobe Bridge after a crash, make sure that Adobe Bridge is not still processing files. By default, Bridge opens to the last folder that was open when Bridge was last closed.
Bridge could open slowly or crash when trying to read a corrupted folder or corrupted images within a folder. Changing the folder that Adobe Bridge opens with could speed up the startup process or alleviate crashes. Reset the Adobe Bridge preferences to force Bridge to open to the desktop. See Solution 2 above for instructions on resetting Bridge preferences. Bridge may not start if the folder that it is set to open to on startup resides on a network that has been disconnected.
If Bridge is not starting, and you suspect that a disconnected network drive is the problem, reset the Bridge preferences upon startup to get Bridge to start. Bridge will open to the desktop after the preferences have been reset. Contact the video card manufacturer for the latest driver.
To determine the manufacturer of the video card, view the properties for the video card in the System Profiler Mac or Device Manager Windows.
For information on using either, see OS manufacturer's documentation. If the Adobe Bridge-specific solutions in this document don't resolve the problem, perform more general, system troubleshooting solutions. In particular, make sure that you're running the latest version of your software and that you have an up-to-date video card driver installed.
