Startup performance
Illustrator has always been sluggish on startup, but 27 seconds on a recent SSD MBP is totally unacceptable IMO.
Thoughts anyone?
By comparison PS is ready to go in 7sec.
Standard install CC 2018 / Il 22 on MacOS 10.13.1

Our typical launch numbers on a SSD MBP is around 6-7 seconds hence we would like to understand more about the issue and problem.
Please get in touch with us at sharewithai@adobe.com or any of the other support channels – https://helpx.adobe.com/support.html . Since this is not a generic issue that we can reproduce at our end, we will need someone to look into your machine to figure out what is going on here.
Warm Regards,

Illustrator takes 7 seconds to launch on an M.2 SSD - as I have to relaunch the application multiple times during the day to improve performance and reset a number of bugs, this is not really a speedy enough launch time and it needs improving.

Hi Ashutosh, Thanks for coming back, I have only just been notified of this. I'm doing pre-release work with Ps and Lr and see no performance issues (making allowances for a laptop). On the other hand Il has always been a very slow-launching app for me. The machine is currently running a lot of apps and it takes 40 sec for the Illustrator banner to appear.
I always maintain 20-50% of the SSD as free space

Running AI 22.0.1 on El Capitan 10.11.6 on a Mac Pro (late 2013). The program is SO slow to open a file or even view what is in a folder. What's going on?

Seeing similar slow launch consistently with Illustrator and all Adobe CC apps. On a Dell Optiplex 980 (quad-core i7), Windows 7, 16GB ram, takes up to 5 minutes + to launch.

I will check. Just an FYI, I mentioned I am on Yosemite. AI CC 22.0.0 is not compatible with this OS. As I am corporate, I am waiting for an upgrade. So, it will take a while.
In the meantime, see what you can do with AI CC 21.0.0

Are you saying these speed issues have been fixed on the latest version? Or, are you being sneaky and merely dangling a faster carrot to keep me loyal?
