Request for Improvement: Kerning Delay with Complex Background Data in Illustrator 2025
I am experiencing performance issues with Adobe Illustrator 2025 (latest version) in the following environment:
Environment: MacBook Pro 2024 (32GB RAM, SSD), macOS Sequoia
File Setup: Approximately 30 artboards with the same complex background (vector data or high-resolution images)
Issue: Kerning and text spacing adjustments result in a ~1-second delay per operation. Hiding the background does not resolve the issue, but removing it eliminates the delay.
Attempted Solutions:
Disabled Navigator panel and layer thumbnails
Toggled GPU performance on/off
Request: Please optimize performance to ensure smooth kerning operations even with multiple artboards and complex background data.

The same problem also exists in the Windows system.
Moving, copying, and scaling are all particularly slow. -
If possible, please package the file you are experience this with (with images preferably), and send to sharewithai@adobe.com (upload it elsewhere if the file is too large, and share the link to it instead), so the team can verify this. Please also mention the link to this report for tracking: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50194749
